This is my two month old Indian star hatchling set up. I took the advice from Garden State Tortoise. Substrate is 1/4 calcium sand and the rest is mix of repti soil forest floor and orchid bark . This set up is until hes at least 1 yr or older it hold humidity great! For lighting , because its a small area ( 66 qt) i only use 50 watt basking and a repti 10.0 13 w uvb/uva bulb and everything is on a thermostat, so when the temperature reaches 98, the basking light off until it reaches 93 and then on again until 98 . The over all temp only reach 83 and the humidity stays around 85 .
