Hi my name is Leo, I live in NY. I recently bought an adult male RT from Andrew Hermes and yes he is very healthy, active and eats fairly well. I keep him in a 50 gal Rubbermaid container. I've done a ton of research before buying one, however, I still have a few questions.
For substrate I only use coco fiber (no mix or anything), i keep it damp and moist. However, the substrate would often get into his food, water and eyes. I used Q-tips (cotton swab) to clean his eyes today. So question #1, what substrate should I use to prevent this problem or it is fine the way it is.
For light and temp, I use MVB from zoomed's all in one powersun 100w (All in one = UVA, UVB, heat). For his basking area, it's usually 90-100 degrees and for his cool side it's usually 70-80 degrees. Question #2, is this a suitable light bulb for my RT?
Any advice is greatly appreciated! Thanks!
