I'm really sorry, I must sound hopeless, but I have another question
My three little babies are not swimming! For three days now they have just sat all huddled in the basking area. They used to swim around all the time, up until last week when i had to change their UVA bulb. The original was a 15 whatt, my supplier did not have any in stock, so I temporarily replaced it with a 40 whatt bulb. All three of them were quite happy swimming around until I replaced it with a new 15 whatt bulb and now they just sit in their basking area.
The only time they swim is when I feed them!
Please help me, I feel totally stupid!

| Its probally to cold for them to swim. Go back to the 40 watt bulb and see. If they still dont swim you may want to take them to the vet for a check up. |

Thank you.
Well, I've now replaced the bulb, and am moving the tank and everything to a warmer part of the house too, see if that helps
