question about our little turbo, a hatchling sulcata .... we recently changed his substrate from rabbit alfalfa type pellets to coco coir and reptile bark on top -- ever since we have changed the substrate our little guy has become less active. We have a basking light on one side of the 20 gallon tank and a reptile coil desert UVB 150 light on the cooler side of the enclosure. From reading this forum we have figured out that the coil light has got to go but we want to know exactly what we should buy for our little guy. We are soaking regularly since we noticed the change and we have turned off the coil light and taken him outside for 15-20 minutes a day (we live in south florida) --- and we definitely need a better thermometer to monitor the temps. any and all suggestions are welcomed.
