New tortoise owner soon!

[awt1997]

I am going to be getting a hatchling baby hermann's or russian but I hear it's pretty similar either way.

my question is, what will i need for it?

what substrate?
what should i do for the lighting and heating?

and so on.

Welcome! Thanks for doing your research before you get your tortoise; most of us weren’t that smart.
