How to ask for help form
Okay, everybody is going to ask you to fill out this form explaining your setup, lighting, feeding, supplements, etc so they can see what's wrong and advise you what needs to be changed. Chances are likely you have been using wrong UVB light and wrong supplementing. Find the form, should be a sticky at top, and fill out as detailed as possible, and everybody will be able to chime in with advise.
