    You do know that balls don't need UV right? I'd take it back if you just got it.

    Are you using an under tank heater?

    Do you have any thermometers?

    i don't have an UTH yet but i plan on putting one on the new tank when i set it up. i do have a thermometer (weather station) in the tank and a multimeter w/ thermometer capabilities for spot checks. still wondering about how long each phase should take for shedding.

    after they clear up it takes about 24-48 hours to shed. There is a sticky in either the general BP section or the husbandry section that outlines the entire shed cycle.

    It divides the phases by the amount of time that they take. I just looked.
