Thanks for the advice. I originally had his UVB mounted above the tank, but when he stopped eating, I did some research and decided it was too far away from him and read that the mesh screens out a lot of the UVB. The tank is 17" tall and so I mounted it on the back wall of the tank about 10 inches from the floor. His basking spot is towards the front of the tank, and is 7 inches from the basking light. Currently the basking light is 100 watts but I also have a 75 watt I could switch out.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
