My tortoise has a 10x10 outdoor enclosure, but it's getting too cold to go out there. The pet store told me that a 50 gallon terrarium would be good enough for a RT, but I now know that that's not true. For this reason, I am going to set up a small baby pool (similar to the ones used for bathing dogs) like a tortoise table and connect it to his terrarium. I think he'll really like the added indoor space ☺. What do you guys think about this?

The pool idea will work. I used them when he moved to our new place a few years ago. We moved in the spring and it was too cold to build anything outside yet. It was short term until we got the out door enclosures.
