I'm getting a 5" carapace sulcata on Monday and I feel quite confident but the only thing I can't seem to find is what acceptable night temps are? My hermanns has no heat at night as room temp is between 70 and 72. Is this too cold for the sulcata?

I would not let it get below 80 degrees . You will need to keep him at 80/85 % humidity with a basking temperature of 90/95 degrees . Ambient temperature needs to stay at 80/85 at all times.
