Hi everyone,
I've been looking on this forum for quite a while now doing my own research, but now I finally decided to get a tortoise. So this is my first time building my first indoor enclosure and I will be receiving my first hermann hatchling soon. As of right now I am growing my own food and plants, so I eventually do plan on adding some plants into the enclosure. All the plants I'm growing are all approved plants through the tortoisetable site online. If I can get any advice or feedback to improve my enclosure I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks
50 gallon rubbermaid tub
Substrate: a mixture of topsoil and coconut coir
100W CHE
75W Basking Light
10.0 UVB
Basking side: 95F
Ambient side: 81F
Cool side: 75F
