[QUOTE="Subion, post: 2006976, member: 114709"] I’ve been watching her all day and starting to think it could be calcium issues again. I may be wrong and hope that’s what comes back on bloodwork instead of something serious. I ordered another light fixture for inside her cage like I had before. This one will only take half the cage though and be less wattage. If it’s same size as her one that was in the cage it’ll only hang about 6-8 inches above her basking spot surface. It does have a removable reflector, last time I had the reflector while hanging a 10.0 she acted as if it was to intense and wanted to hide most the day. Took the reflector out and she stayed out of her hide but sometimes she’d try to stay in a blind spot from the uvb all day. Should I get a 5.0 bulb or a 10.0 with her being that close? Maybe even a t8. Her cage is 18” to the screen and I’ll have to measure in the a.m. to be sure but her basking spot is probably 8-10 inch high and the fixture i had before probally hangs 2-3 inches down when hung inside. The current numbers seems to be good on the solar meter with the one that currently sets on top but I’m worried it’s not coming through as much as she needs since I quit the vet prescribed calcium and switched her new fixture on top the mesh around the same time it had me wondering if the uvb may be an issue. Here’s the one I ordered. Before I had the 39 watt. This time I ordered the 24 and planning to get a reptisun bulb from the local pet store when it arrives in a couple days. In the meantime I’m going to hook her old one back inside and see if there is any change. [URL unfurl="true"]https://smile.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B08HCL4J8D/ref=ya_aw_od_pi?ie=UTF8&psc=1[/URL] [/QUOTE]
