    UV light recommendation?

    Also what wattage do You get and is it just a UV or mercury vapor bulb. It’s so confusing. Right now I have the coil. I read they can go blind so I turned it off now I’m cso fused as to what to use.

    Does anyone like the power sun bulb in a ceramic fixture? If so is there a similar cheaper option or place to purchase

    I’m curious if he could be kept in his indoor habitat in the garage. It’s the biggest space I have. If he has Uv and heat lamps would it be warm enough.

    I do not. I built up the sides with dirt and put rock around perimeter. So far he isnt digging but wants to climb out. I may have to add another plank or chicken wire to sides as he gets bigger

    Only problem is I live in Kansas City. The winters are brutal even for me!! I would have such guilt leaving him outside. Hopefully I’m the next few years we will be heading to warmer climates. For me and him. [emoji12][emoji217]

    How long were you able to keep the tort in the 3x5 enclosure? I guess I have a few years before he is full grown to re-evaluate and get a bigger enclosure as needed.

    Wow. There are some crazy tort people out there. I think that’s why I’m stressing so much about his indoor enclosure.

    I hate to be superficial but the glass tanks just look nicer too!! These terrariums take up so much space in your house it should look nice too! But I’m a newb so what do I know.

    Saw this glass enclosure online. It’s a 75 gallon about 50” long 19.5”w. Would this be ok for a Russian who is about 7 months to keep him into adulthood?

    Waterland tortoise tub

    Does anyone have any experience using the water land tortoise tub for their tortoise. I’m looking for an indoor enclosure that isn’t More than 55” long and they have one that size and 2’ wide. I don’t have a ton of space. Would love to hear some thoughts on this product.
