Hello,

To get to the "meat of it" you cannot keep monitors with a heat lamp on them and a screen top. It WILL dehydrate and kill them fast. Fix this immediately and then continue your researcn quickly. They will need a solid top with restricted small ventilation to contain some humidity, like 70-80 percent... They may also be sick, being imports like all green trees(unless you got them from one of the very few breeders or breeder...) Also, cut the saline spray. Get a water bowl and use clean water if you have to spray them with anything... I wish you well with them and keep your updates running here.
Best to You- Mike S
