I wouldn't lower the basking spot ( Just make sure you have a proper temp. gradient ). In the past Ive had Argentines bask untill thier body temperatures were up and over 115 Degrees. The only time I had a problem with pukers is when it started getting cooler outside and my basking temps were too low. Once I figured out that the thermostat wasn't producing the temps it was displaying, the problem was fixed. You do have to wait awhile untill you feed them again or else you will end up with chronic pukers. Once that happens you will have a very hard time turning them around, and they will waste away fairly quickly.
