he doesn’t do this normally, but it has happened before. for the last few days, hes been glass surfing starting a couple hours after he wakes up. i take him out and clean his tank and i let him roam around for like 30-45 minutes until it seems like he’s tired himself out but when i put him back in 20 minutes later he’s glass surfing again. do i need to just take him out got longer? i’ve kept him out for up to an hour but he keeps doing it. no other problems. he’s eating normally and i believe his lights are at the right temp. he’s an adult in a 55 gallon tank. is his enclosure just too small?
Start w/ the lighting please--- basking temps and how are you taking them? NO stick ons --- UVB NO coils--- brand and bulb where in the tank is it? top of screen or inside the tank? We can go from there--- its a process of elimination

My pets have me trained to the point where I can’t keep Mari’s door closed or she will freak out. It has to stay open at all times (I keep my bedroom door closed at all times and make sure nothing is on the floor for her that shouldn’t be there) or else she will start surfing like crazy. She’s so spoiled I can’t believe I let her get away with it ? my room is set up to mimic an enclosure, though, and I’m considering making another basking setup because she likes to hang out in different corners of my room and in the wild they’d have access to the sun while doing this. They probably want variation, idk. You should probably not do what I’m doing because what I’m doing is letting her control me. ? I do this for my cockatiel, too - she can fly anywhere in my house and she has perching spots set up throughout for her to chill out. They aren’t in the same room, though, so no one is at risk of predation or attacks.
