I currently have a 25 watt heat + uvb bulb 7 inches away from my tortoise. I’ve been looking into it but don’t know how far away the light should be as I don’t want my turtle getting cooked, but I also want to make sure it’s close enough to actually be a basking area, because the temperature read 81 degrees all over the tank and it was 8-10 inches away. So since I’m putting it 1-2 inches closer, I want to know if it’s the right higher to have it at. Everything helps
