Lighting
Posted: 29/04/2015 by Rohansterne

Just out of interest what sort of lighting would be best for a tortoise. Would one uv heat lamp be enough or would you need a heat bulb alongside a uv strip light or two bulbs. One for heat and the other for uv. Also what do people use at night time? Any information would be helpful thanks

Hello,


Click on the "TPG Discounts Codes" box & you will find the recommended UVB Bulb (heat/light.) Join the TPG & get the discount. A 'hood' fitting will be needed.
 You will need to state which species for advice re. night lighting.

Regards,
Tom
