FAQs

How often should I replace the UV bulb?

Replace the UV bulb every 6-12 months, or as recommended by the bulb manufacturer, to ensure optimal UVB output.

What kind of bedding should I use?

Appropriate bedding includes substrates such as tortoise-specific soil mixes or hay. Avoid materials that can be harmful to your tortoise.

How do I clean the HabiStat Tortoise Pools?

Clean the pools regularly with warm water and a mild, reptile-safe disinfectant. Rinse thoroughly.

How do I use the Arcadia Earth Pro A and Earth Pro-Cal supplements?

Follow the instructions on the supplement packaging for dosage and application. Generally, supplements are dusted onto the tortoise's food.

What if the basking lamp gets too hot?

Monitor the temperature with the included thermometer. If it's too hot, adjust the lamp's distance from the basking spot or use a dimmer.

Is the kit suitable for all tortoise species?

While the kit is a great starting point, always research and ensure the specific needs of your tortoise species are met.

Where should I place the thermometer?

Place the thermometer in both the cool and warm sides of the enclosure to monitor the temperature gradient.

Troubleshooting

UVB lamp not working.

Check the bulb for damage and ensure it's properly installed. Verify the power supply to the clamp lamp.

Thermometer readings are inaccurate.

Reposition the thermometer and check the calibration. Consider using a digital thermometer for more precise readings.
