    UVB Height and wattage

    Sorry to bother you with another question however I’ve realised my Arcadia uvb tube is a t8, would this still make the recommended height 18-22inches? I just want to double check as I’m currently building a new stand. Many thanks for your help!

    UVB Height and wattage

    I think I’ll look at trying to make something that can raise the UVB tube as I know people do recommend the Arcadia tube and I’ll look into getting that solar meter to test it. For now I’ve turned off the tube and she’s just getting her UVB from spending time outside Thank you for all your help!

    UVB Height and wattage

    If my UVB tube is currently fitted 6 inches above my tortoises back would there be a better UVB tube to have or am I best to move the UVB tube? Sorry for all the questions and thank you for your help!

    Thank you for your advice, I'll have a look at that diet sheet and it's nice to know I don't need to worry too much as long as she's getting a varied diet!

    Thank you for your help! I don't want to restrict her diet due to fear so it's good to know how much of all the different weeds and plants I can give her

    Thank you for your help, that's good I didn't realise you didn't have to offer a variety every meal! I have read those care sheets and I've been following all the instructions, I'm just nervous of feeding her too much of the wrong thing before my own plants and weeds grow that are better for her

    Hi I am a new owner to a 1 year old Russian tortoise called pebbles, I have been researching to make sure I am feeding her a varied diet however whilst the seeds I've planted are still growing, most of the weeds and plants I have access to now say to feed in moderation. But what do you guys...
