Hello, my name is Kat. About a year ago I rescued my Redfoot tortoise, his name is Mr. Attitude. I'm desperately trying to find the correct lighting for him. He currently has an 18 in Uvb light in his enclosure. I recently returned a 3 ft light that is designed only for growing plants not meant to be in an area with moisture. Can anyone recommend a 3 ft light with hood that would work best for his enclosure?
Mr. Attitude is in an 8x4 enclosure with live plants that he's moved to where he wants them, 2 water dishes 1 bigger then the other, 2 che on either end, so far so good I think on humidity it's maintained between 73-84 % temp has been fluctuating between 74-90's mostly from sun in the afternoon. He has a greenhouse covering his entire enclosure. Right now my biggest challenge is finding a light that will be what he needs to maintain his health.
Here's current setup and a few pictures of Mr. Attitude hanging out. Thank you in advance for all advice.
