    Fish for a Slider

    Hahaha I've seen rope fish before, they're really cute and I'll admit to having wanted one, but i think a turtle would think it's a worm. Well, i can't speak for all turtles, but i know mine would.

    Broken Fluval 406

    Fair enough. I was wondering about the electromagnet as well, but not sure how to proceed with it. but the whole filter is less than 3 years old, so do you think it would be accepted back under it's 3 years warranty?

    Broken Fluval 406

    I'll give it a shot, but it doesn't sound or feel like the impeller is moving at all. if it was, there'd be some amount of water movement or at least make the noises it does when attempting to draw water. The impeller is in the correct position and moves like it should with the pieces around it...

    Fish for a Slider

    I used to think that, until she proved me wrong. a few years back when she was about 4 inches long i placed about 10 comets, ranging from 4in-7in, plus a 3 inch pleco, into her tank for holding while their pond was being worked on. a couple hours later i came back to check on them and she had...

    I think a catfish could make a great addition and it's something I'm definitely going to look into, thanks :)

    Broken Fluval 406

    I would love to talk to the customer service people, and in fact have tried. But the service hours are week days only, and if i remember right, 9 a.m.-4 p.m. and most likely won't include tomorrow, since it's a holiday.

    Fish for a Slider

    Don't get me wrong, i'm not asking for a staple food, just a tank mate. and no, she doesn't live off fish, she stays on quality pellets and greens nowadays, with worms, snails, crickets and fish as treats. I'm just curious as to what could live in the tank with her and add some variety

    Broken Fluval 406

    I'm scared to try turning on the motor without it being in water, since it could burn out the motor. And from the sound and feel of it, the impeller isn't turning at all. There's absolutely no water flow or even attempt at it from the system

    Fish for a Slider

    Lola's favorite activities are chasing and stalking her fish and finding ways to knock over her rocks. she's pretty destructive, even for a turtle. she usually keeps a dozen or so goldfish and minnows because they learn to stay away from her before she can take a bite out of them. she even...

    Fish for a Slider

    Does it require a lot of vegetation? I can't seem to keep any in the tank, as Lola likes to dismantle any living vegetation I try to add, as well as some fake plants

    Fish for a Slider

    Does anybody recommend a particular type of fish as a tank mate for a largish red eared slider? So far she's just had minnows and goldfish, but I'd like to add some variety with something she maybe can't eat or would be dissuaded from eating. She's a pig when it comes to eating, and stays in a...

    Broken Fluval 406

    For the last year, I've been using a Fluval 406 to maintain my 75 gallon turtle tank. it's worked great up until a few days ago. I replaced a broken impeller and the parts that come wit it, and when I tried to start it up it refused to work. the water won't flow at all, not even a trickle. I...
