Yeah I'm planning to put one together eventually. It just rains so much and is so humid here I don't think it would do well if kept outside. I could be wrong though.
Thanks. I just today received a 4" CB Hermann's. First tortoise for me. Always been more of a bug and snake guy. Still waiting on his UVB fixture and bulbs to arrive.
Recently saw some LED UVB lights for sale. Expensive, but are supposed to last 20,000 hours. Has anyone used these before? Do UVB levels drop off over time?
