You didn't say what kind of tortoise. You should get a book.

a farely large tank, with water in one end and a place for them to bask up on some soil or sand. I most recomend a 75 watt basking RED heat lamp. some rocks at the bottom of the water and give him worms, lots of fresh fruit, spinache, they love canned corn! large grapes cut in half, they even sell pellets special for turtles. apples, applesauce, peach baby food, and make sure to get supplements for it. Tortouses cary saminilla (not on porpuse it's just the act of nature) so make sure to clean the tank and the water regularly. take it out side too!
