Thanks everyone :D I plan on added more to his new home piece by piece. I'm really obessed with this guy now and I want him to live a long, happy life.
I ordered the Crane, just have to wait for it to come. He still has not eaten, and the last time I've seen him eat is when I first received him. He ate a few crickets then, but hasn't since. I leave some dusted crickets in his cage all day, and take out the ones he didn't eat before I turn his...
Here is my little king, he was acting very depressed in his old tank so I got him an entirely new set up proper for him. He is now acting well and being active. I was then inspired to bring out my photographer side.

Thanks, yes it is for catching extra water. I empty it often, but will consider a shallower dish. I expected the stress to be the problem of his lack of appetite, but I'm over joyed that he's better now. I have some more vines and I will add them.
As asked, here is his new set up. Yes, he stopped closing his eyes. I have seen him drink, but not yet eat. He seems much happier is walking around his tank as normal. By the way, his name is Charlemagne.
What are good humidifiers for a Jackson's? Would this:

Or this...
Update: I got a new mesh for him with proper lighting and etc. I do not have a humidifier, as I had bought a fogger which I don't like. I will mist him often. He is acting more normal now, but I have not seen him eat. I have seen him drink now though. He seems much happier. It is a 24 x 12 x 26...
I am trying to mist it whenever I can, so every hour because if not it goes down every low. I don't own a humidifier but I am considering putting a steamy pot of water near the cage. I have raised the lights so its not about more than foot from the cage, but he is acting the same. I put in...
Thanks, I have already the cage in mind that I bet on eBay. It is 18 x 18 x 36, but I won't get it until after X-mas. I have trouble maintaining the humidity, what should I do in the mean time? He is acting the same and I am getting new lights.
I mean, I don't want to spend money and have it...
Yes, I know. I think I will have to buy a new top. I think I will buy something to hold a single one of these Zoo Med bulbs as you recommended:

And a dome for...
I understand, I will get a larger tank as soon as possible. As for the lights, what are some good compatible tops for that kind of light? I have a hood for the tank, not sure if it can fight those bulbs. Is there a similar tube type bulb for heat that may fit, or shall I buy another thing for heat?
It is a Desert Series 50 Combo Dome, I have just purchased it. I plan on buying a larger enclosure, but I want to see if it can survive a day or two more.
Update: I have gotten a good cage for him immediately. He is acting normal again, but I have yet to see him eat.
