Indoor tort UV requirements

spookykoifish Jul 19, 2004 03:04 PM

HI

I'm new to the tortoise world and I would appreciate some advice. I'm preparing an indoor enclosure for a greek tort. How much UV A&B do they need?? If anyone on the forum has kept any torts indoors long term please help, I've read a alot of conflicting info so I'm a bit confused

Indoor UVB lights, even good ones like Reptisun 5, are not an equal substitute for direct UNFILTERED sunlight.
