Monitors will use basking spots in excess of 150 F. The generally agreed upon minimum basking temperature is 130 F.

Does the cage have a heat gradient? Being able to cool down is almost as important as being able to heat up.

How many feet deep is the soil you have in the enclosure? Monitors typically need to burrow for health and safety reasons.
