Heat uv light
Posted: 08/05/2016 by popman21@hotmail.co.uk

I have a Herman Tortoise in a viv with a combination heat uv light and a uv tube with a heat pad at the warm end. Should I keep the combination Buld on all the time or have periods with it off? Thanks.

Hello,

I'm amazed you were not given advice by he seller. 

Can you state exactly which lights you have [name & wattage.] ?

Throw the heat mat away - unsuitable for torts.

Regards,
Tom
