How long do i keep my turtles lamps on for?

I have one UVB 5.0 Lamp, and 2 household heat lamps. How long do i keep each on for and are there any further instructions?

I leave the lamp on for 12 hours and off for 12 hours; this simulates day and night.

  1. 12 to 14 hours. I use a timer so they come on and go off by themselves.

  3. All of them should be on for 12 hrs in the Summer and 14 hrs in the winter.

  4. I have both of mine set on a timer. The lights just mimic the sunlight. And I change the timer in the winter time. You should keep them on during the daylight and off at night
