If you just got her she may just need some time to settle in, it can take a week or so. Moving and a complete viv change will throw a Leo for a loop, try to leave her alone as much as possible and let her relax and get used to her new surroundings. Do work on those temps though, it's very important that they are right
To be honest I'm having a bit of a problem getting the temps to stabilize where they need to be. I've got a 75watt red heat lamp and a medium sized zoomed uth working together on the basking side and its hanging right around 79.3 - 81.2 (measured with digital thermometer w/ probe). It's the same exact setup as I use with my snakes and I never have any issues with getting the temps right. I've got it in a walk-in closet so drafts aren't an issue. This afternoon I'll get a 100watt bulb and see what happens.

Aside from changing water I'll try not bothering her for a week or so and see what happens.
