The temperature should not drop below 80°. High humidity and low temperatures will lead to a respiratory infection.

The night time temperature is a little bit cool. If you are using a thermostat with your heat source then it should be easy to raise the temperature. Housing your tortoise in a closed chamber enclosure makes it easier to control both heat and humidity thus providing a more stable climate for you tortoise.
