    Pyramiding

    So I've set up the Heat emitter last night it is a 50v I'm worried its not powerful enough to do the job. It wasnt that hot and the thermostate didnt turn off. My tort still isnt really moving today or eating. Will he die if he tries to brumate being so tiny.

    Can I also ask why are people in england so anti Vivs for tortoises. I have no idea how you can keep anything humid that is open like a tortoise table.

    Oh really where do you live? Part of me is toying with the idea to just get a viv if he needs it for a couple of years. If you would be up for selling it. I could make something for now until the lockdown situation has changed?

    I have ordered another ceramic socket which I can hang from the original stand I have. Is this okay or do I need another dome? How do I hang them from the bar? In the greenhouse? I worry it will fall down if not tied?

    I didnt know that about the UVB that's been on for 12 hours a day. I will make sure is just on for 3 hours going forwards. And for the night time heat- have the thermostats set at 80degrees?

    I've noticed since adding more water to increase humidity, that there are small flies around like tiny ones. Will these hurt the tortoise at all. I am currently searching for a greenhouse cover to increase the humity.
