hi ken, thanks for the input but i have already replaced the analog hygrometer with a probed digital one and also replaced the ramp bowl to a terra cotta saucer
Here is another picture of my tort taken a few seconds ago
I am currently not using any light for heating, only CHE's and 2 T8 reptisun tube 10.0 spaced apart. Also above is the reading of my hygrometer/thermometer (the white thing dangling between the light fixtures)
TG, sorry for the late response. I got the tort from his previous owner last 5/20/17. The owner stated that the tort was a year old on 5/19/17.
Here are some pics the previous owner sent me

@Tom

Hello again,
I have had several questions and a bunch of started treads coz everytime i feel there is something off with my tort. I ask questions. So far everybody has been very helpful
I just wanted to have your opinion if my radiated is starting to pyramid. I have noticed that there has been...
This is how close the fixtures are to each other. I would say 4 inches apart.
I am guilty about that ramp bowl. I am currently looking for a clay saucer. I'll be looking at home depot or lowes
Thanks for all your input. I'll bring it down to 10 inches from the substrate
