Past few weeks/months I've noticed some white marks/blemishes appear on top of my redfoot's shell. At first I didn't take much notice to it as I thought it was shedding + having a dry shell. I also spray her down + her enclosure and the wet shell can hide the white blemishes. I'm starting to...

Thank you, what type, I've been recommend the 5.0 version, is this correct? and I'm guessing the length of the tube depends on the length of your table so the longer the better?

Because I've realised that the setup I have right now is not correct and I just wanted to confirm the best equipment I should get for her, what wattage do you use? I have just purchased a 100w exo terra cermaic heat emmiter, will this be enough and is exo terra a good brand?

I'm going to built my 7 year old female red foot tortoise a new tortoise table and I'm wondering what heat bulb/lamp is recommended, and what wattage/heat it would need to be, I got recommended a ceramic bulb would be best as it gives out no light. Also what type of UV bulb should I get, a...

I have a 6 year old red foot tortoise and I'm upgrading her tortoise table, I'm stuck between a table and a vivarium, I know everyone says a table is better and a vivarium can stress tortoises out but vivarium can keep the humidity in. What type of heat bulb would you guys recommend? I made a...

You say 5.0 tube, what do you mean by that? Also how would you position it in the table, above her or could you attach it to the sides?

The best I can do is 70 inches long and 50 inches but the problem is I still live with my mum and I don't know how to explain that I will need to use up that amount of space in the spare room.

8 feet long? my room is barely 8 feet long....

I don't have an old bookcase or don't know anyone with a bookcase that I could use, there is also a limit to what space she can use.

I was looking at this table, it seems bigger enough but it seems like the base is laminated to make it water proof, it that ok or will it hurt her somehow? http://www.petandtortoiseworld.co.uk/store/p10/The_Cabin.html

Should I only use that coco coir or can I mix it with the cypress mulch? Like 50/50 or one area of the table only with the coco coir and the other part with the cypress mulch.

Yeah I'm looking at getting a new table soon, but trying to find a table that big will be hard, I was thinking about building my own.

I mixed in some water today, could the lights be too close? http://imgur.com/a/Ch2AH

I wet her substance every two days and leave some water out so she can sit in/drink from but it seems not enough, might need to get a humidifier.

http://imgur.com/a/4uiqE I always thought these white marks were part of her growth since I read that up somewhere and I even took her to vets a few days ago and she never said anything about it. I'm very worried since if it is shell rot it has been around for a long time. You can also see the...
