Building a tortoise enclosure, for the basking light I was going to use a 65w flood type bulb. Is there any significant difference between a halogen or incandescent bulb other than incandescent bulbs producing a little more heat?
As for the UVB lighting, do standard fluorescent lights produce adequate UVB for a tortoise assuming they're mounted a foot or two above the enclosure?
Should I also include some regular LED lights in the enclosure solely for the purpose of lighting? Or will a Basking light and a florescent light or two, assuming fluorescent lights are adequate for a tortoise's UVB requirements, suffice in a relatively well lit room?
