I ordered a 80 watt panel from Reptile basics.. To heat my Russian tortoise hide...the hide is 18" x 40" with a ceiling height of 6". .. This enclosure is outside.. So want something that can keep temps in the 70* on those 30* winter nights..
Will a 80watt panel put out enough heat? The hide has a dirt floor(6" deep).. How close can the panel be to the Russian tortoises without getting burnt??
Any help would be appreciated..Thank you
