@RPGshift Yes, everything mentioned at the beginning of the video is part of our ReptiHabitat Aquatic Turtle Kit. Zoo Med products are available from most pet retailers. Check with your local pet store to see if they carry, or are available to order, our product. A Store Locator can be found on our website for your convenience. Hope that helps. Take care.
i looked on the petsmart and petco websites for this and it isnt on either.. could they still have it in the store? if so which one will most likely have it. and how much is this? i need to know before i go to get it
@Nsantmyre1208 Hey there! Zoo Med's Aquatic Turtle Kit is carried, or available to order, at Petco and most independent pet retailers. A Store Locator is available on our website for your convenience if you need help finding locations or phone numbers. Hope you find what you're looking for. Take care.
I have another question! Because you have to turn off all of the lights in the tank at night, do I need to buy any lights to put on at night like the nocternal lights or is it safe and ok to just have no lights on at night?
@ForeverGlamorous133 If the temperature of the tank drops significantly at night, a heat bulb may be necessary. A Nocturnal Infrared Heat Lamp, Night Light Red Heat bulb, or Ceramic Infrared Heat emitter are all acceptable lamps to leave on at night to keep them warm. Always make sure your tank is the proper temperature.
@theminilotus As hatchlings, yes, but Red Eared Sliders grow very large. Housing 1 female Slider in a 20 gallon tank is not possible, and 2 males is pushing it. We recommend a much larger tank for full grown sliders. A 60 gallon would be much more appropriate. Contact us at:
@boxleythetalkingdog Zoo Med products aren't sold direct, you'll have to check with your local pet retailer for exact pricing. A Store Locator can be found on our website for your convenience. Hope that helps, take care.
Hi I am getting a turtle soon and I am almost 100% sure I am buying this. I have two quick questions about this! 1. Which lights do I leve on 24/7 and which do I have to turn off? 2. If I have to change the filter every few weeks and I have to change the charcoal, where can I buy new charcoal to put in my filter?
@ForeverGlamorous133 All turtles need a proper day/night cycle to stimulate normal activity patterns. To simulate a normal day time period, any “white” lights such as the Reptisun UVB lamp, Basking Spot Lap, Turtle Tuff, or Powersun UV should be used for about 12 hours a day. Turn these off at night to allow the animal time to sleep. Lights such as the Nocturnal Infrared Heat Lamps, Night Light Red, and Ceramic Infrared Heat emitters can be left on at night.
@ForeverGlamorous133 The activated carbon in this filter should be changed once every three to four weeks. If you are cleaning the filter more frequently than that, you do not have to change the carbon every time. Carbon can be purchased from the store section of our website at zoomed.com or can be picked up in the aquarium section of your local pet or fish store.
@DoSomethingify Our basking lights are turned off at night to retain a healthy 24-hour day/night cycle for our turtles. We do however use our Night Time Basking Heat bulbs for our tanks that risk getting to cold at nights. Always make sure to maintain the proper temperature for your pet.
@CORYSPHOTOS Hey there! Zoo Med currently only makes 10 and 20 gallon tanks. However, you may want to check out our front opening Naturalistic Terrariums on our website. Just search 'NT-1'. That may be something closer to what you're looking for. Hope that helps.
@SpadeAce90 It is strongly recommended that they have some kind of land area. Being in water exclusively can risk shell rot, among other things. Very few species of turtles can live their entire lives in water, always research the needs of your pet before setting up their habitat. Zoo Med's Turtle Dock and Floating Turtle Log are both excellent sources of land area for tanks. Check out our website, or contact our Customer Service, for more info.
@pat2not Animals need to have a photo period that includes both daytime and night time. If you are using any daylight bulb, it should be turned off at night. If turning the daylight bulb off causes the temperature to drop too much, a night time heat lamp such as a Nocturnal Infrared Heat Lamp or a Ceramic Infrared Heat Emitter to provide night time heat.
@MrBelgman Research the habits of your particular turtle species before adding additional tank mates. Some turtles may try to eat the fish, or the waste and habits of one of the pets may be harmful to the others well-being. Always research the needs of your pet before placing them in their new habitat. Hope that helps.
@mecha185 Some turtles may try to eat some fish. We keep feeder guppies with many of our turtles. The schools of fish create activity in the tank that helps promote natural behaviors in some of our shier turtle species. If your turtle eats fish, be careful that it does not make the fish its sole diet. Many tropical fish will not do well with a turtle as a tank mate as they produce more waste and you may not be able to maintain the high water quality that is required for the fish.
@Constative Our products are available from most pet retailers. Contact your local pet store to see if they carry or are available to order. A Store Locator is available on our website for your convenience. Hope that helps. Take care.
@HorrorFan553 Here at Zoo Med, we perform partial water changes on a weekly basis. We remove 30-50% of the water with a siphon and replace it with fresh water. The filters are cleaned out every other week to help maintain clean enclosures.
@zoomedlabs Thanks,, ive been searching uvb light in my country and the zoomed dock ,, products but its not here,,, so i put my turtle outside every day if there is sun,, but i really want to buy uvb light. and your different kinds of turtle food is not here,, there is only 1 kind here, its named,.

@Wowvids2222 We do not recommend any substrate for most aquatic turtles. Small pieces of gravel or sand can be accidentally ingested while your animal is eating food and can cause a blockage or impaction in the digestive tract. A bare bottomed tank is easy to clean and does not provide your pet with something to accidentally or intentionally eat that isn’t food. Hope that answers your question.
@zoomedlabs could have just made a quick suggestion thanks for giving me customer support and giving more detailed answers to other questions about aquatic turtles, i shall go find my answer elsewhere
@gangrail There can be a lot of factors to your question. I feel our Customer Service team would provide a more concrete answer for you over the phone then what I could have here. I apologize if you felt you weren't being properly helped. That was not my intent.
@zoomedlabs how often do you recommend I feed my 3 turtles I have a common musk and a razor back both over a year old and a yellow belly 10months old. Thanks
@86sharky We recommend feeding most turtles once daily. They should be allowed to consume as much food as they want for about 5 minutes. Any remaining food should be removed from the tank to prevent polluting the water.
@ashley79238 We recommend using Reptisafe water conditioner to remove chlorine and chloramines from the tap water and to add some beneficial electrolytes. Using this product makes the water safe for your turtles.

@magical1951 You can introduce them in their permanent enclosure, but you will want to monitor their behavior. Watch for aggressive behavior and be sure that each animal has access to hiding places, basking sites and food, and that they are using them regularly. If one is dominant, even if it does not act aggressive it may still out compete the less dominant animal for these resources. If one begins to deteriorate in health, they should be separated and allowed to recover.
@zoomedlabs I Went To A Petco And They Have The Same Turtle Kit Shown In This Video, But It Has Diiferent Products. Where Can I Find This Exact Same Terrarium?

@zoomedlabs how could you tell if have a pregnat turttle?and what is the mating behavior?and could you like do a video on it jst telling how to tell male and female also?
@Sebaroo9 The ReptiHabitat Aquatic Turtle Kit is best suited for small turtles. This kit will be appropriate for some species only as young turtles as eventually, they will outgrow the tank and will need to be housed in a larger habitat. Always research the proper requirements for your turtle species.
6" turtle in a 20 gallon tank??? I feel terrible if I have to put my 5" turtle in a 29 gallon during weekends that I am home from college. 10 gal per inch is a much better estimate.
@BlackandChrome Zoo Med agrees on the 10 gal per inch philosophy. The turtle in the video is a little over 2 inches and will be graduated to a bigger tank as it continues to grow.
@BlackandChrome There are exceptions. Different species of turtles have different space and care requirements. Always make sure to know the specific requirements for your turtle species.
@supersportsfan100 Zoo Med Labs does not sell direct. You'll have to check or order from your local pet retailer to find our products. You can use the store locator on our site to find a pet shop near you.

@InfiniteVideoDirect Thank you for your feedback on our ReptiHabitat Turtle Kit. This starter kit is best suited for young hatchlings. Here at Zoo Med, we recommend 10 gallons of water for every inch of turtle. The Hatchling in the video is a little over 2 inches, and will need to be graduated to a larger tank as it continues to grow.
@megatron915 Turtles need to experience Day time and Night time so most lights should be turned off at night. If your home does not stay warm enough for your turtle at night, a Night Light Red or Nocturnal Infrared Heat Lamp may be used to provide night time heat. For more information, please contact customer service for tips on providing night time or 24 hour heat for your turtles. They can be reached at:
i saw this kit at wal mart for a 10 gal for 50 bucks and a 20 gal at petsmart for 99 but its worth it as a starter for ur lighting n docks so on but u will need a much bigger tank in the long run to have a happy turtle
@SuperPitbullMan We don’t recommend gravel for most aquatic turtles due to possible problems with ingestion. Please contact our Customer Service for more information. They can be contacted at:
@thecaity122 Contact your local pet retailer for exact pricing. A Store Locator can be found on our website if you're having problems locating a pet shop.
@Ic3ymirage The 20 gallon Aquatic Turtle Kit is a great starter kit for young or small turtles. Different species will have different requirements, especially as they grow up. We have raised many of our hatchlings in these 20 gallon set ups. As the animals outgrow the 20 gallon tank, they are moved to appropriately sized tanks or into our Zoo Med Turtle Tubs.

i was thinking of buying male for my female. should i just put him in right away or let them meet outside or something.

@magical1951 You can introduce them in their permanent enclosure, but you will want to monitor their behavior. Watch for aggressive behavior and be sure that each animal has access to hiding places, basking sites and food, and that they are using them regularly. If one is dominant, even if it does not act aggressive it may still out compete the less dominant animal for these resources. If one begins to deteriorate in health, they should be separated and allowed to recover.

sammytheshark1 2 months ago in playlist Uploaded videos
@Sebaroo9 The ReptiHabitat Aquatic Turtle Kit is best suited for small turtles. This kit will be appropriate for some species only as young turtles as eventually, they will outgrow the tank and will need to be housed in a larger habitat. Always research the proper requirements for your turtle species.

6" turtle in a 20 gallon tank??? I feel terrible if I have to put my 5" turtle in a 29 gallon during weekends that I am home from college. 10 gal per inch is a much better estimate.
BlackandChrome 3 months ago
@BlackandChrome Zoo Med agrees on the 10 gal per inch philosophy. The turtle in the video is a little over 2 inches and will be graduated to a bigger tank as it continues to grow.

@BlackandChrome There are exceptions. Different species of turtles have different space and care requirements. Always make sure to know the specific requirements for your turtle species.

whats the best to put on the bottom
supersportsfan100 3 months ago
@supersportsfan100 We do not recommend any substrate for most aquatic turtles. Small pieces of gravel or sand can be accidentally ingested while your animal is eating food and can cause a blockage or impaction in the digestive tract. A bare bottomed tank is easy to clean and does not provide your pet with something to accidentally or intentionally eat that isn’t food. Hope that answers your question.

@InfiniteVideoDirect Thank you for your feedback on our ReptiHabitat Turtle Kit. This starter kit is best suited for young hatchlings. Here at Zoo Med, we recommend 10 gallons of water for every inch of turtle. The Hatchling in the video is a little over 2 inches, and will need to be graduated to a larger tank as it continues to grow.

@zoomedlabs do i need to turn off the lights at night?
megatron915 3 months ago
@megatron915 Turtles need to experience Day time and Night time so most lights should be turned off at night. If your home does not stay warm enough for your turtle at night, a Night Light Red or Nocturnal Infrared Heat Lamp may be used to provide night time heat. For more information, please contact customer service for tips on providing night time or 24 hour heat for your turtles. They can be reached at:

Ic3ymirage 4 months ago
@Ic3ymirage The 20 gallon Aquatic Turtle Kit is a great starter kit for young or small turtles. Different species will have different requirements, especially as they grow up. We have raised many of our hatchlings in these 20 gallon set ups. As the animals outgrow the 20 gallon tank, they are moved to appropriately sized tanks or into our Zoo Med Turtle Tubs.
