killer freshwater idea.... will it work?!?!?

[unvmyplecos]

i was thinking in school today, is it possible to have a 75+ gal. tank, with half land, (kinda high up like 8 inches below fish water level) then you fill the other half with fresh water, and light dirt on the bottom for, gravel like a natural habitat, and fill the water with plants, and a few little creek fishies and a pair of green anoles on the dirt, would the reptiles drown, eat the fish etc. or would the fish get sick, would they have bad reactions and total stress thanks to the reptile or what? would a turtle work or a different reptile?

Not completely sure what you just said, but you're probably better off asking this in the vivarium/paludarium section.

it would be like a um, beach, but a tanked beach with dirt and crays, and minnows, and anoles instead of crabs, and sand, and beach fishies

kinda like this, exept all tank



anoles like it dry, they probably wouldent work out too well.

my FBTs are doing great with their fish roomates, thats what i would go with

 

[unvmyplecos]

yeah like that but all tank,what about turtles, would they like it, just a little less dirt?

 

[cam191919]

a turtle would be a ton of work, there're crap machines

request to get this moved to vivarium section

depends upon the turtle. Most would however eat the fish and the crays

 

[unvmyplecos]

see, im confused because, it has freshwater fish incorporated, AND land, and reptiles....... its just to confusing

 

[petluvr]

A TURTLE WILL EAT THE FISH.....NO TURTLES!!!!!

it would be difficult to keep the land as land while still keeping up enough filtration.
