Is my enclosure right for my tort?

[Rylatts]

Those "tortoise houses" were a pretty nice invention - FOR BABY TORTOISES, but they're not big enough for an adult. I would change a few things - get rid of the straw and use a substrate similar to orchid bark or coco coir, or even clean dirt from your backyard.
Replace the waterer with a flower pot saucer.
Move the hiding place over next to the wall. It will give you an inch or more room.
Measure the light from the bottom of the bulb to the floor of the habitat. It looks like it might be a little close. I think they're supposed to be about 12".
But my best advice is to try to build him a safe, escape-proof outdoor habitat. You'll be surprised how well he does when moved outside.

I don't keep grown tortoises indoors, but this is a picture of one of my baby indoor habitats:

What kind of tort is that? If you have the space...go 5ftx3ft at the minimum..if not 6x2...

Jade, mother-inlaw's-tongue, paddle plant. I just pick something from my collection that's in a small pot.
