From the picture they don't look unhealthy to me, just in need of a little food and a bit more light.
Thanks, FD. I think the heat has something to do with it.. I raised the lights up a bit, now about 2" or so up. Did this mostly because of temperature reasons- very well may undo this.

I've got the temps down so they range from around 73-77... Still higher than yours, but much lower than 90 if you ask me!

I definitely don't over water; I'm wondering if it's possible that I'm under watering? just thinking out loud.
