Also he closes his eyes 70% of the time
.Iv only had him 2 days. They say it can be because of the new home and just setteling in. Just hoping it's not the bulb and want to make sure thers no issues :) thanks

Ha, you beat me too it. I should really look at all the posts before I go moving things around and creating threads for people :oops:

I am not familiar with this particular light so just going by what I am seeing, I think the light is too bright and could be hurting his eyes. I know lots of people use all in one bulbs and really like them. I really like the separate tube UVB and a basking light. The reason being is the tube UVB gives more UVB coverage in the tank where I feel like an all in one bulb only gives coverage in a small area.
If you've only had him a few days he could still be settling in to his new home but usually when that is the case they would be hiding or not wanting to eat or be touched. Closing the eyes, in my opinion, is a lighting problem.

Do you have a picture of him?

I would switch it out as soon as you can. Keep an eye on him and make sure he has places to hide in his tank to get away from the light.
