Anicatgirl,

Thank you for the response.

So the scales coming off like that is not considered shedding? Okay that was my first mistake.

The scales are falling off because of the mineral oil? Never knew the oil would eventually cause this.

No stuck eye caps.

Since the new set-up, humidity has now been between 55%-75% and temps range between 70-80F nighttime, 80-90F daytime. The reason it gets really low at night is because I have had to turn off the heat lamp manually since it now gets too hot in there, upwards of 95-100F. I use a 150w red basking bulb, which is suppose to be for both daytime and nighttime cycles.

Up until now I have only used a heat lamp since it has been all I needed, but with these newfound problems I decided to purchase the Pro Heat panel along with a Herpstat to regulate the temp. At the moment I use two (digital and non-digital) thermometer/hygrometer on either end of the tank.
