Aquarium Advice Apprentice
Hello
I have a 40 gallon breeder tank for a yellow bellied slider. Right now it's bare except for a stick on the bottom and his floating basking area. I'm bored with the way the tank looks so I feel like sprucing it up a little. I'm sure the turtle doesn't care what the tank looks like, but he doesn't pay the bills. Anyway, after reading about the horrors of gravel, I'm thinking about getting pieces of slate and gluing fake plants to them with aquarium sealant. Maybe I'd throw some sand in to fill in the gaps. Would that work? I'd like the tank to look cooler than a big box of glass with a turtle in it.
Any ideas welcome.
thanks
Pete
