So.
I can only get to I believe 17 inches, thats as high it is at the roof to the substrate. Is this still okay? and also yeah I had a look at the solar meter 6.5 previously but seen the price so I pretended I didn't see it 🤣
No, in real note I will eventually buy one tho.
p.s. I can't...

Well thank you all for the help, yes I’m going to better mount the light however it’s about 19 inches right there. Also got my monitor up now. As you can see it’s not very humid under in yhere, need to sort that out. Also need to buy a lower...
I bought the new T5 as stated, however do you know what power connector I need to buy for it too? I completely overlooked that factor.
I too showed a picture of the one I’m using now however are you sure this is okay? The one I currently have is very long and much bigger in diameter whilst...

Yup I 100% agree, the heatwave wiped me out and now I can't go and do stuff bc how bad the rain is 🤣

I will aim to try get an outdoor thing, preferably something that I can assemble and disassemble with ease.
I will aim to get him 20-30 min soaks at least 4 times a week. My weeks currently are 8 days as I work 4 on 4 off...

I used ace high as it was advised I used it...

For food I have been using a supplier on ebay, (https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/145579358719) its been really good at feeding him, lots of variety. However the last 2 weeks, due to super hot...
yeah, after a while he managed to get a hold on walking correctly. I overly worry and over protect this little guy, I just seen a post of a little tortoise being allowed to just walk around the grass in someones backyard / in the forest. I would be wayyyyy to scared presuming he is really easily...
