hey, so my carpet Nem burrows itself into the sand and is flat and deflated ONLY when the lights on. I have other carpet and they don’t do that. I have radions

anyone else experience this?

How intense do you have the lights? Not that the lighting is to bright and it doesn't like it.
 
How's its mouth( open, inside out, etc)? How long have you had it? Any way you can get a pic not so heavy blue? In my experience, when lighting has been too strong, they tend to move to find a happier/less intense spot.
 
Deflation cycles are generally indicative of bacterial infections, especially in a newly introduced animal.
 
I'm not really sure it's deflated in the picture...looks like it's trying to pull its foot further under the rock...need some additional pics to see for sure.
