Hi and welcome! Yeah she should have a hiding spot like a cave anything that she can hide in the shade. You can do collard greens/dandelion greens/endive etc. Finely chopped squash is good too. Go to the resource page on this site and you can probably find a whole list of them!

Is she not active in the sense that she doesn’t move all day? You might want to check out the lighting and temperature guide. Rule out the basics first, that way if she’s still lethargic you can check for other problems

80 is too warm at night- they should have no lights on at night including colored they are harmful to the eyes-- No coils for uvb and digital probe thermometers to get accurate basking temps-- temps at night should be 65-75 - surface basking temps-- 105-110- a long tube fixture for uvb- I can post links for those- this is extremely important- everything I have posted-
