Cloud B Twilight Turtle

Product Information

Hydration: Ensure your turtle has access to clean water. A shallow dish should suffice, but it’s crucial to keep the water clean, as box turtles often defecate in their water.

Imagination: Storytelling about Twilight's family and pond adventures; Storytelling related to the constellations; creative storytelling individualized for child I choose to use the ClassicLED Aquarium Light for my turtle tank. There are some really great things about this light. One of the best things is that the light is powerful enough to help the plants grow really fast, a lot of lights are not powerful enough to help the plants grow and that can be kind of annoying sometimes, but with this lamp, I had no problems with this.

Will you be claiming the VAT back?

Substrate: The substrate you’re using should be appropriate for a box turtle. Coconut coir and sterilized topsoil can work well. This mixture can help maintain humidity and provide a suitable environment for burrowing. Unlike the Homestar Planetarium, Twilight's stars do NOT move, and he has just eight constellations; however, these features were fine for our purposes---a simple, comforting product to encourage a little one to go to his own room for wonder, rest, and sleep. UVB light is a light spectrum of the UV light that plays a very important role in the life of most reptiles, and that also includes turtles. UVB light plays a vital role in the production of Vitamin D3 which is essential for the calcium in the body.

UVB Lighting: Box turtles require UVB lighting for proper calcium metabolism and overall health. The bulb you mentioned, labeled as UVA, isn’t providing the essential UVB rays. You should definitely invest in a UVB bulb. The wattage will depend on the size of the enclosure. For a 10-gallon tank, a 5-10% UVB bulb with 13-26 watts should suffice. Make sure it’s a tube-style UVB bulb. Turtles need two types of light, one that will provide UVB rays, and one that will provide heat. You can’t have a proper turtle tank without those two types of light. But do they also need to be on during the night? This is a great little companion to soothe children to sleep if they are a little afraid of the dark or if they need a companion (the turtle) to be near as they go to sleep. It works as a night light while it is on, but it won't serve that purpose after the light goes off. From my perspective, this little guy also works great for romantic or soothing lighting in the bedroom, out on the patio, or wherever... for the parents. Yes, my wife and I are constantly 'borrowing' our daughter's sleep light because.... well, because it's just so cool. It’s great to see you making improvements for your box turtle’s enclosure. Here are some considerations regarding lighting and temperature:At the moment I am using the Zilla Slimline Tropical 25 UVB T8 Fluorescent Fixture with the Zilla UVB Fluorescent Bulb, and I am really liking this setup, and so do my turtles. The only thing that you have to be careful of when you get this setup is that you have to make sure that you have a good place where to put it because it won’t be as easy to place as a bulb setup. Other than that I can just say that this tube UVB light is working great. For a long time, I also kept my tank in a room that was naturally lit by the sun for most of the day. But unfortunately, I had to move the tank out of that room at some point, so I started looking for the best way to light the tank. I was completely happy with this setup, and my turtles had no health problems. The only reason I changed this setup is that I was moving and I took that opportunity to change things up for my turtles as well. Thermoregulation: It’s essential to provide a temperature gradient within the enclosure. This means having a warm basking spot at one end and a cooler area at the other. Ensure the turtle has the option to move to a cooler area if it feels too warm.
