Turtle Tub

nice setup, great turtle.
 
Thank you for the kind compliments! :)

And yes sploke, I'll figure out something to keep it from bowing. It's on my to do list.
 
I built some shelves this week for some of my reptiles and fish. Here are some updated pics of my turtle tub. Shots of his pet fish are also included! I hope this helps Rebeckah!

Georgous turtle, good idea for its tank! Just incase I would put in some type of pole-y thing to keep it from bowing a little bit more, the structure seems to be keeping it okay, but I would do it just incase. By the way, what kind of fish are you keeping with it? I would think he would eat it by now (tasty snack :drool: )
 
The fish living with my turtle is a female Convict Cichlid. She was suppose to be food but my turtle shows no interest in her what so ever. When I dropped her in she was about a 1/2 inch in length and now she's about 2 inches long. She follows my turtle around and picks up his scraps. They're quite the odd couple.

people use convicts for feeders??

nice simple set up. what kind of filter parts are those?

Yes, I raise them for feeders/treats for some of my other large predatory fish. That way I know their not diseased. I also sell some to local pet stores when I can.

Thanks. It is a very simple, reliable and cheap set up. I'm running a Rena Filstar XP1 for now. Might upgrade in the future to the next model when he gets a little bigger.
