You need to better support the cords so that they do not pull the lights to one side. Is is what you mean by 'curvy'?

You see it now?
There’s a couple little tabs I’ve circled in the picture below. Those are intended for you to tuck the cables into so that the fixture doesn’t do that. You can open them wider if needed or pinch them tighter with pliers to hold the cables. If you pinch it though, don’t pinch it too hard to damage the cable...you want it just enough to hold the cables in place.05FB391B-AF15-461C-A47E-58DD5CD1BCBC.jpeg

You’re welcome. You could also use twist ties or something similar to hold the cables to the stand if needed.

Hmm pushing back the light connectors is not doing what I want it too..it pushes the fixtures even more at a angle!! ??

His temperatures is definitely higher from switching lights and adding a warmer!!

He’s out of his hide and under the night warmer! Light turns on in 45 minutes!!

Humidity is @61% And warm area is between 87-90 F! Coco reads at 94 so he’s definitely warmer!! ??

Eyes seem to also be down some!! Focusing on getting his nose better next!

Let me know if temperatures still isn’t enough or two much!! ???

I think temps are much better!
Use the gel on his nose as well as eyes as it was suggested before!
