Hey all, so I am about to make a new enclosure for my Elongated tortoises. There isn't many guides, especially new ones on the web and a lot of people say the care is similar to RF, something I kinda agree to a certain degree. Now I remember reading one of the care guides for RFs here mentioned not using a classic heating bulb, but a CHE, because RF to like bright lights so much as they live in forrest (similar to a Elongata). This finally brings me to the question: Do you think it's best to use a CHE for a Elongata too? For now I am using classic 80-100w bulbs, the tortoises lay below them for a while to heat up and then go away to their humid hides or shadier places of the enclosure, so my plan is to at least test a CHE. I just wanna know if some other people use them, or what the general opinions are. Thanks
