Try lowering the basking decor - swap it out for something lower and see if surface temp lowersyeah.... i don't know how or what to do? should i get a new dome or something

Please get him some more decor- what is the distance from the uvb to the floor? Are you using a digital probe thermometer to get surface basking temps-- he really has nothing to sit on except the hammock -
The probe is in the mail now and i've been waiting for him to get better before i start making big changes for him. His uvb is about 15 inches from the bottomPlease get him some more decor- what is the distance from the uvb to the floor?

Ok you need that probe -- adding decor will help you get temps etc- please get him some--- your dragon needs a hide- PetSmart has nice decor for dragons- did you see my tank - I just put the black mat in today- hiccup was giving me the stink eye but he will get over itThe probe is in the mail now and i've been waiting for him to get better before i start making big changes for him.

What's a good way of keeping his cold side of the tank warmer. it's been getting down to 70 or so?Ok that bridge is it a decor piece for him to sit on? He needs that hide-
During the day or at night?What's a good way of keeping his cold side of the tank warmer. it's been getting down to 70 or so?
during the day. Also he had ben sitting under his basking light more with the 75 but still not basking. i checked the temps and they are at 95-98 in the basking spotDuring the day or at night?
Get a regular house hold bulb and place on the cool side 40-60 watt no LED's they wont work - or set up a second basking spot in the middle of the tank - 90's --- that will keep the cool side around 80's --- you want a 50-75 watt bulb --during the day
alright sounds good i have started to get his new decorations ready and they should be in tomorrow morning. hopefully he starts basking again. he's been sitting under the basking bulb for about 5 minutes but still not basking quite yetGet a regular house hold bulb and place on the cool side 40-60 watt no LED's they wont work - or set up a second basking spot in the middle of the tank - 90's --- that will keep the cool side around 80's --- you want a 50-75 watt bulb --
