Have you tried a good dark leafy green salad with collareds, endive, and bok choy, and topping it with either bee pollen, hibiscus flowers or dandelion flowers? These are appetite stimulants. Then uros also need beans, small bird seed, and orange and green hard veggies a few times a week.
They cannot process their food without the proper temps, so I strongly suggest that you get an accurate thermometer. You need either a temp gun or a digital thermometer with a probe, and make sure that the surface of his basking area is 120-130. Then he needs an area to cool off at the other end of the tank.
Do you use UVB? if so, what kind? If it is a UVB coil or compact bulb, turn it off immediately as these are causing serious health issues in reptiles.
