Oh perfect! Thank you :)

Im looking for something with absolutely no fibres, and what i can purchase in the UK for my tort. Have tried coco coir bricks but as they've got the fibres its something im trying to walk away from due to possible impacting for my tort now hes getting bigger and making his food dirty with the...

Okay perfect! Ill do my research whilst we await his new enclosure!

Perfect, thank you so much! With the coco coir is all the different brands exactly the same or is one better than the other?

I have a mediterranean spur thighed tortoise - almost 2 years old, and im just wanting advice on what sort of set up would be best for him as im getting mixed advice. We currently have him in a 4ft vivarium but hoping to upgrade to an 8ft x 2ft He currently has an arcadia t5 uvb 10-12% with a...

Just wanted to say thank you again, the LEDs arrive yesterday and I fitted them today with also doing 9-2 UVB - and hes been much more energetic so think it also works for him so there's no chance of overheating!

Perfect thank you ive ordered some strip lights and will do the 9-2 uvb light! His temps do drop much lower over night and he has his cool hide, when i touch his shell hes never extremely hot - point of overheating hes always a nice warm temperature!

Thank you for this! What type of leds are recommended? I know it has to be 6500k but wasnt sure if strip lights would be ok. Ive got an almost 2 year old greek spur thighed
