You should have made a tortoise door that can be opened or locked so they could go outside on good days (at your choosing). I'll bet you're going to lose a lot of heat though that glass door. But you've done a super job. I really like it! I would hang the lights instead of depending upon those clamps. We've had a few threads about the clamps failing and the lights smoldering in the substrate or even starting a fire.

I like orchid bark.

I am no help on your substrate choice not having built a cool outside house like that. Beautiful construction
work however.
I got a kick out of your user name too.

Not sure on the substrate, but really like it. The glass door may be inefficient, but looks very nice.

I use a simple mix of mulch and top soil in my out door pens. It breaks down and becomes great for a level base. It stays clean and will support plant life..
