What is the best lighting and heat source to use? i have a russian tortoise who lives indoors year-round (with supervised trips outside in the summer) I currently have a under-tank heating pad, but i put it on the side of the tank (as recommend by a girl at Petco) I also have a 100wZoo Med Repti Basking Spot Lamp (I think this only provides the UVA???) So I got a spiral UVB light (I don't remember the brand name or the wattage.) Are these lights okay? My Russian hasn't gotten any bigger since I got her but I see that the ones that were in the pet store with her have grown a bit. Should I get different lights? I saw one called Exo-Terra Full Spectrum Repti Glo 2.0 and I saw one called Exo-Terra Repti Glo 10.0 Compact Desert. Are these better? Do you have another suggestion? please help. I love my girl and I want to make sure she lives a long, healthy life with everything she needs.
Thank you so much!
