I will certainly do that! I am super excited. I also thought about buying a 29 gallon tank to grow aquatic plants in for the little guy to snack on!

I have never had a newt but maybe 5 gallons is simply just too small it seems small to me!

Alice, I have been looking into a turtle too. Let me share what I have discovered. Overall Habitat. 10 gallons for every inch of shell filtration should be double what the tank size is (not how much water you have in the tank but that actual size) Canister filters work best sand is the best...

Alrighty Thank you so much for your help I also went on the forums at austins turtle page! That was really helpfull as well. I am going with the 55 gallon tank and then I am going with a fluval 405 canister filter for 129 off amazon brand new!

So I am currently starting up a new tank a 55 gallon turtle tank. I know this should be in the aquatic reptiles section... Mods please don't move it PLease! that forum doesnt get too much action. Anyways I saw on youtube about raising the egg crate about half an inch wih pvc pipe and then...

I plan on getting just your basic red eared slider. all by his lonesome. I am going to get either a 29 gallon or a 55 gallon tank. I found a seller on ebay for the right side. the 29 is a breeder. so it would be long. I'm going to fill it with river rocks then some other natural rocks to...

and as far as like the set up goes... did you buy like a kit or did you build it from scratch? theres this really cool basking platform i really like sold on amazon. Amazon.com: Penn Plax Decorative Turtle Topper/Basking Platform: Pet Supplies but will a baby turtle be too little to get up...

They eat on land right? So wouldnt just a small tank like 10g work just to eat in?

Hello guys, I haven't been on here in a while. My two fishies were doing really well until about a week ago one of my 3 year old male betta's passed away. but thats alright he lives a really healthy life. I grew really fond of him. Sad to see bubbles go. Anyways, after that I have been...

Test your water every day with the api master kit for freshwater, keep up on your PWC and also I cycled with prime. Just moniter it closely test twice a day if you have to. If you dont own the betta yet, just wait a few weeks until you do buy him. It will be much happier.

I am so glad that you all agreed with me. Jasurf: did you consider that maybe your betta didn't come out because you had 6 fish in a 5 gallon and that is simply not enough space. Bettas love to dart around. My bettas are constantly swimming and when they arn't the rest up against the leaves...

Jasurf21: I completely disagree. When I take my betta out to clean his tank and put him in a little .5 gallon container I bought he hates it. I can see his personality change right off the bat, but when I put him back in the tank he is happy again. Bettas are tropical fish. I like to keep...
