I have two digital thermometers to monitor the temps in his tank. I am always very careful to the point of obsessive to make sure the temps are correct. I feel terrible right now because the one time I go away the rheostat fails.


It seems like he is in discomfort right now, so I'm assuming it's a burn. Some of the scales look white, like when we get a scab. Will the scales fall off, re-grow, get infected? I'm trying to keep myself from freaking out right now.

And his tank is never damp for him to get scale rot, I have him on aspen with a very sturdy water bowl that has never been knocked over, just cleaned his tank as well.

...what is chlorhexidine? Is that like hydrogen peroxide? How should I dilute it? 50/50?
