I just got a blue daytime bulb instead of basking 100w and a Che bulb 60w as well and 8.5" dome. Shld I put Che in bigger dome and daytime light in smaller or the other way around? I also got dry tortoise food pellets and she is eating!!!! She ate for about 5 minutes and is now heading to her hole. Below r more pics. I'm at about 82f and 70% without Che bulb yet.At 15" you will have to cut a hole in your lid slightly smaller than the dome you choose. Then sit it over the hole. Because it's only 15" high you don't have the option of hanging your heat source inside of the enclosure. This is something for you to think about further down the line when you make a bigger enclosure. You will be wasting some heat through the top of the dome, can't be helped at this point. I have 3 che's in an enclosure with domes sat on enclosure the escaping heat in my case helps warm my tort room up.
