Be careful not to adjust more than one thing at a time, otherwise you can't tell which variable is the cause.
I think I’ll try two thing. One add a led light that’s adjustable in brightness so it’s no so bright but still has some day/ night cycle light.

second I’ll turn off the uvb( I thought uvb was good for them ? Is this wrong in thinking ?)

I’ll keep hearing the same for now.

last thing should I expect him to be active or out during the day ? I don’t think I have ever seen him active during the day.
