Hello again and thank you for replying to me. I have a heat source which is a lamp with a bulb purchased at AZ Reptile store that supplies little guy with heat and UV rays. We were told to turn it off for 8 hours during a 24 hour period but our tortoise is inside right now and the house temp is about 75 which from my reading is too low so I have been keeping it on all the time. His enclosure is large enough that he can step away from the light and heat to the other side which temps at 82 and he has a place to hide too. Do you think this is okay. My biggest concern was how to soak him properly and how to maintain the 85-95 degree water during the 30 minute soak. Any suggestions.The way this is worded is cause for concern… You have a heating element of some sort for night heat, right? Sorry if I'm reading it wrong...
