Hello,

They should be hibernated. They should not be kept in 'tanks'.
You need to get a 100W Megaray UVB bulb & a 20cm reflector dome, to suspend above a tortoise table.

They should live outside in summer, but you need to read up on this.

If you click on "The Tortoise" box, you can download a Caresheet & find a great deal of other information.

Regards,
Tom
