Temperature and hygrometer: required.
All kinds of turtle nests: a must.
Water Basin: Required.

Ceramic heater: Required. Although red legs can tolerate relatively low temperatures, it is recommended to maintain a feeding temperature of about 28 degrees for a long time to maintain normal physiological activities of red legs.
Moonlight: Optional. Recommended configuration.
Heating pads: optional. It is recommended to configure in areas that are too cold, which can better improve the ambient temperature, save energy, and be good for turtles.
