She is in a 10 gallon tank temporarily. I am building now tank number 2 because i was unsure what the white wood i build the enclosure with was produced with a mixture of cedar and pine. After doing tons of research i found Cedar and pine can be very toxic . This should be done very soon , i just work a lot.
The lighting was originally just a SL50 which is a Zoo Med basking bulb. I was told by the pet store it contained UVB and was great or basking and later found this was inaccurate. The tank basking area wasnt getting warm enough so i bought just a standard heat lamp the pet store sold until my order came in. Light go off at night.
I ordered a T8 24 in uvb that came in yesterday and she is getting to soak all up today, with the mesh lid off just to ensure she can absorb as much as possible. She will also have a ceramic heat lamp with a regulator plugged in. The lights will be on a time cycled as soon as the new cage is done.
