I dont have access to any exotic vet here, so I just make sure he stay warm, soak, and bask him daily. His condition is not showing any sign of improvement though

Yeah, but I also took some of the blame by not giving him the right temp from the beginning, before last week I don't use CHE and basking lamp thinking since the temp here never drop 27 degree even in coldest night, but I didn't think of the surface temp where he actually lives, that definitely...

I check the temp using thermogun that can read surface temp, here is the reading (all in celcius): Day temp: Basking spot: 36-39 Middle temp: around 33 Coldest spot: around 29 Night temp: Under the CHE: 33 Coldest spot never drop below 29 (I put thermostat there) For humidity, I read somewhere...

Thanks for the comments and suggestion yall, After reviewing the past picture I have since I've got him, I noticed that his nose is closed most of the time, and apparently it's a sign of RI, so he have been sick even before I got him but since he is relatively active, I didn't realize it, and...

That closed chamber bin reference is really helpful, thanks!

I see, he have his favorite corner, a small gap, just behind the box, maybe I'll put something on top of it. He still not opening his eyes, weirdly though he can still move around just fine... But I think he can't see his food, maybe that's why he is not eating(?) He is now chilling on top of...

I don't have the exact temp for the soak, but it was not too hot, I would still consider it warm like it's comfortable to put your hands in. And after that soak he still wants to eat even though just a little. And yeah another mistake was because the water level are too high, to where his...
