Hello and welcome.
Read the caresheet and post pics of your enclosure and we can help you get him set up right.

Hi and welcome,
I was in the same position 7 years ago but with the help of this forum my leopard has been happy and healthy,
The caresheet linked above is a good starting point but ask as many questions as you like to clarify anything.
If you post pictures of his enclosure and the lamps you use, you'll get good feedback to make sure your tort has everything he needs to be safe and to help him thrive.
