I have a hermanns tortoise 1 year old . I have a combination lamp UVA and UVB infra red and it says it goes up to 35 degrees . This is good as it says the tortoise then has heat, light and uv . It says it helps vitamin d3 , prevents metabolic bone disease , stimulates reproduction , . So the bulb is halogen basking lamp and the lamp is ceramic clamp lamp . It also says should be 20 centimetres above the tortoise , directly above . I think this sounds good but I am not sure ? I am going to get a thermometer to check the temperature and because we have an open table house I want to make sure it is warm enough . Any advice or tips on anything to do with enclosure lighting and enclosures in general ? Thanks guys xx
