    I've had this green tort a couple months now and while it's encrusting rapidly, the new growth is practically without color. Will it ever?? [​IMG]

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    Which tortuose is this?

    My experience is that they like the lighting pretty intense. I have kept both of mine as high up as I could get them..

    Place it high on the rocks they seem to like it there.

    It's supposed to be entirely green...I think :/? I'll move it up and see what that yields. Thanks.
