Here's the bulb fixture you'll need. I don't care for this particular design, but I couldn't find the ones I like listed in your area. https://www.amazon.ae/Reptile-Fixtu...2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9waG9uZV9zZWFyY2hfbXRm&psc=1

I'm no expert on them, but you can't go wrong with fine grade orchid (fir) bark. I don't recommend using actual soil for babies.

are these 2 options suitable if I want to use any one of them ?

For baby tortoise you can use coco peat. After putting it in the enclosure, hand pack it to a half of initial volume (if was 6 inches it should be 3-4 inches after packing).
