Hiya everyone, just a quick question.....cant help notcing that many "ready-made" set up equipments for tortoises includes a tile for basking on. Why is this and is it necessary to get one?

As far as i know they dont need a tile to bask on. (if im wrong then im sure someone will let me know) the tile may be used to put food on to wear down their beak as they eat. lots of tortoise set ups are wrong so make sure you research!
