Need HELP w/Giant Day Gecko

I have an adult male who, since the last two weeks that I've had him, hasn't seemed to move from where he stays...at the top of the tank.

I am not a newbie to herps, but am a newbie w/Phelsuma. The cage is well planted, it is a screen/glass cage typically used for Chams.

I have the requisite UVB and hot spot etc. and humidities are good. Ambient temp is app. 82F w/the hottest spot at around 92F. I have not seen him eat at all. The crickets walk right by unnoticed. Is he just still freaked out at the new "digs"? What would a "normal" activity level be?

Any tips, ideas, would be a great help.

Thanks in advance,

Bill
