I was speaking to the other member about your other thread. She was reviewing this one and saw no feedback had been given and tagged me in the thread to look it over so that your concerns were fully addressed.
Oh ok. Thank you.
Your welcome.
Did you buy the correct T5HO lighting? What is the temp at basking now?
Ya I got the t5h0 reptisun 5 linear bulb and basking is at 80
And you got the 5.0 UVB bulb? What is the distance to the closest branch below the UVB bulb? Can you take a picture of the entire set up again as it is now please?
And the temp where he is at is not hot correct? If you hold your hand right below that bulb it should not burn you. Tail in that pic looks normal.
Not at all. Not hot. Warm.

You might want to put a horizontal branch for the basking branch
There is.

Where?
Edit: wait no I see it
Ok good. So a few things... The changes are still new to him. He is older he will need more branches to move around due to age and due to not having the right UVB prior. I would put more Horizontal branches. Specifically at basking level. It may be more comfortable for him to be able to rest and bask horizontally rather then vertically. They need to start 8-9 inches below the UVB fixture. This will be important for him due to his age and MBD.
There is a shelve he can sit on as well as the fake beach and a real branch.
