I have a question regarding an Arcadia T5 D3+ Desert 12%. I have one installed in my RedFoot enclosure, that is about 15 inches high (Following the Arcadia introduction https://www.arcadiareptile.com/lighting/medium-uv-species/) In my current setup I put the light on top of the Exo Terra Large Habitat, that has mesh screen on top. I am somewhat concern about the high of the setup, should I follow dissect rules displayed on the Arcadia website? Any suggestion? The current height is 18 inches from the top mesh screen. Also som few weeks I have to take my baby RedFoot to the vet (for a separate reason the torstoise was shocking and current eat for a while. But it’s already OK and eating as usual. ALOT 🤣) The doctor said that it have Metabolic Bone Disease. This could by cause by bad lighting setup, or do to bad diet. I have been taking more care to it, letting it be in the sun more time. But I cannot have the tortoise in the sun for more than 2 hours. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks
