Hello,
I have just set up our new tortoise table. The lamp is 30cm from her shell as instructed but the temp does not get up to 30degrees as needed. I am not sure if I am allowed to lower the bulb or if there is another way to make sure she can bask at the correct temp. The thermometer probe is at the same level as her shell and is only getting to 21. I set the controller to 32 but it doesn't get that hot.
Sorry if this is a stupid question, I just don't want her to get cold and am confused.
Best wishes, Lucy
