O.k, you need to get 2 or 3 low wattage halogen (flood) lights, put them in a row, that means the animal`s whole body gets heated (most important). also, you can move them closer to the basking spot without them burning (I`d suggest 40 or 50w), if three makes the whole enclosure to warm, use two.
That`s the problem when you only have a small tank, not enough space to get a decent temp gradient.
As I mentioned earlier, keep the heat on 24/7 for now, obviously making sure there are cooler, darker places to retreat to...
