Hi! Y’all helped me set up my first enclosure so I’m back for more advice. I have a 2 year old 7lb sulcata. We live in middle Tennessee, just south of Nashville. Currently we have our tortoise outside all day in a 32’ x 17’ grass/weeded area. At night we take him inside. He has outgrown his enclosure. We are planning on making him a permanent set up outside where he will have lots of heated space for winters as well as more space to roam. However, this may not be completed in time for the start of winter. I would like to upgrade his Animal Plastic enclosure just to be safe. I am looking at the 96” by 48” one. So here are my questions. What should the ideal height be? Also I am looking at a Vivarium RHP- how many watts should it be to go along with recommended height? And lastly what size/model Reptisun hood for UV should I get for this size enclosure. Thank you so much for all your advice!
