You need a linear uvb. How are you measuring heat? I use flukers basking bulb but you also need a wider dome.
Please get rid of the coil uvb- they are a health hazard - please replace w/ a long tube fixture 24" zoo med w/ a reptisun 10.0 T 5 or a Arcadia pro T 5 w/ a 12% bulb 24 watt- found at PetSmart or a 24" sunblaster nano tech if you need links please ask - please check you dome for wattage - I would get a single dome w/ correct wattage for dome- you can get domes at your farm supply stores for like chickens - they have high wattage strength - and they are cheaper as well - but please get your uvb changed out as soon as you can- please post back on here when you get the uvb I will help you get it placed for your tank the screen will determine placement and distance
Let me know when you get the UVB I will help you place it for the tankI’m going to petsmart right now

the screen on the tank is a fine mesh like a screen door or a wide hole type screen?I can’t post photos but it’s set up now
Screen door type meshthe screen on the tank is a fine mesh like a screen door or a wide hole type screen?
ok so it needs to go inside the tank w/ a distance of 12-15 inches directly over your basking decor pieceScreen door type mesh
What happens if it’s on top of the mesh?ok so it needs to go inside the tank w/ a distance of 12-15 inches directly over your basking decor piece
hang w/ 3 M Velcro fasteners -- fishing line - long plastic zip ties or this one I recommend picture hanger wire its bendable
It blocks a good bit of the uvbWhat happens if it’s on top of the mesh?
