Thanks, Dirtydmc. I got the basking spot at about 115, but since we remodeled the enclosure it is holding heat and humidity better. Before renovations, the lowest the temps got (which was at night with just the heat bulb on) to be 75, so i assume it may be a couple of degrees warmer now.

Is it common to make a mistake like this in buying a tegu? P;ease tell me I'm not the only one on this forum in this situation. I did months of research before buying Kodo and I feel kinda stupid for getting the "wrong" species. I've been working incredibly hard to get him tamed and properly socialized so hopefully Kodo will be Argentine in personality if not taxonomy.
