ID RECCOMEND TO NOT STACK THE ROCKS LIKE THAT BECAUSE IF MORE THAN ONE TURTLE IS ON THERE OR EVEN ONE IT MAY FALL OVER HURTING ONE OF YOUR TURTLES I KNOW FROM EXPERIENCE FELL RIGHT ON HIS HEAD AND HE DIED A DAY LATER
No offence but I'm trying to look up a video of a person setting up a a turtle tank not showing what it looks like i wanna know step by step because im getting one for xmas and i need to know how to set up the tank :/
im new to having turtles i have 1 red eared slider and a map turtle do they like alot of hiding places underwater? and also what is best to feed them and what vegtables do i feed them? as my slider just dont seem happy also they obv like alot of space and things to climb yer?? anything else i should no plz get back to me thanx xx
Suggestion: Remove the rocks to add more swimming space, this is a little tight for 4 turtles. Suction cup the sides of the floating log to the sides of the tank, and make it your primary basking area. An alternative would be to remove the log and rocks and add an above-tank turtle topper/basking area either homemade or store bought. Let me know if this helps.
hey around a week ago when i came back frome school i found a red eared-sleder turtel in the middle of the street (think someone must have just left it ther :/ ) .. anw i took it with me feed it with mincemeat and shrimps and some variety of plants now its eating and drinking well but atm coz i dont have a tank nor have money for one i keep it on the balcony with a shallow bowl of water but i dont think its enough to keep it healthy could you give me any advice on what i could do pls its vital
@annie8nicole no its not heathy, but for now try using plastic storage containers. lyk at walmart. but dont fill it up too high for these thing arent designed to hold water. yu must also set it up so he/she could come out n dry off so making a slope out of rocks would be ideal. and finally yu need a light and lamp. now for this one yu hav to get it at the petstore. make sure it emits UVA< UVB and heat. its not gunna be cheap. then simply place the light over the basking area. its only temporary.

You will need a much bigger tank after they get a little older. You are definitely going to need a better filter, probably a canister type such as a Fluval. For now, I would recommend getting a Penn Plaxx turtle topper so you can fill the tank all the way to the top to give them more swimming room. Also make sure those rocks aren't small enough to be ingested for obvious reasons. You may want a heater in there if you can't maintain a temperature between 65-75 deg F.
Fuck i can't have one because my "Chinese Family" said that Turtle's are bad luck because they're slow and Dumb im 1/4 Chinese But seriously I Want to kill the Chinese in thair belief because they are so Overreacting about turtles and other animals they want me to buy a fucking Flower Horn that Fish sucks because that fish can onle do swimming and feeding stupid fish damn i cant have a cool turtle
everything about it is good. the water level is PERFECT! a lot of bozos raise it to an inch from the top, this makes escape cahnces very good for the turtle. DO NOT DO THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I WISH MY TURTLES WERE THAT BIG. I HAVE TWIO RED EARED SLIDERS AND THEY ARE 3 INCHES. I HAVE THEM IN A 29 GALLON TANK. DO U KNOW ANY FOOD THAT WILL HELP THEM GROW PLEASE REPLY
@NIKESRAWESOME123 I'm not sure why you would want them to grow... They will outgrow a 29 gallon aquarium in no time, so unless you want to upgrade your tank sooner,i wouldn't suggest it.. The is no real way tomake them grow, but if you feed them a lot of protein rich foods they will grow quicker, but its dangerous and will cause the shells to become deformed.
@ArchieAnDJB4life I don't think they are they look around 5 inches. They can get up to 12 inches in shell length. 12 inches for females 8 inches for males
dude i dont think you should stack up your rocks like that, your turtles are pretty big and they can easily knock one over, i saw it tip a bit in this video!
i want a turtle! but first i need to sell my piranhas i think, but check my tank on my video and tell me how much gravel i need to buy, if i need a dock,if so where, any fake plants, more stones,or any information plz tell me i rly want a turtle! i have a fluval 206 filter that was expensive so i think i can keep the tank clean, plz tell me what turtle i can have, and look at my tank on my channel so it will be easyer for u to give me info, plz reply quick wanna sell my piranhas.
quite soon red ear slider will need a much bigger tank. at least 100 gallon. anything less than that is almost cruelty. red ear sliders are the most popular type of turtle by what people dont know is the grow well over ten inches. if you want a smaller turtle go for a razor back musk of just a normal musk hope it helps. good setup for the moment though. they lok healthy :)
So an RES can easily climb on top of that tower of rocks from out of the water? I have an extremely small setup for my RES right now but I am getting a real tank this weekend...Another question I have is about the pebbles I am using right now. They are rather small, small enough for him to choke on but I originally assumed that that wouldnt be a problem because he wouldnt eat them. AS I know now thats a problem y question is what is the probability that he will try and eat a pebble?
Hey man don't know if someone said this yet or not but you should be careful with that big tower of rocks. It looks pretty cool, but you should glue them together with some aquarium-safe glue. I'd hate to see that topple over one day and smash your tank.
@cherrylo0po0 hello to you. RED EAR SLIDERS have the abbility to stay underwater for long periods of time, however they need something to bask on. They like to be most of the time in the water, but hey come out to dry and bask in the light ( keeps them from getting diseases and mold in their shell). If the turtle is a baby there is no problem putting him/her with the fish. You can buy turtle pellets ( NUTRAFIN) it has calcium and vitamins, also you can feed some small vegetables and some insects
to Altezza07 no one cares what u think..k so just shut up, not evrey one has thee money to get ea turtle a sepret tank,oh and i like thee tank...mail miiiz,kk
Yea yea true not everyone has the money. BUT THATS WHY YOU DONT FUCKING BUY IT. ITS SIMPLE. NO MONEY. NO BUYING. K? I MEAN THE WHOLE CARE OF A TURTLE IS BASED ON MONEY, THEN INTELLECT LOL DURP
Okay, first of all i hate seeing mutiple turtles in a tank. unless its massive and has loads and loads of basking space. Its a lot less "cruel" to keep them in an indoor pond with a good 3 or 4 square foot basking space and a good chunk of deep water. like 2 foot deep and about 2 or 3 square foot . bout the size of a double all together, but a bit higher off the ground for 4 turtles. but 1 turtle would only need half that space, single bed size!
lol he waved! cant wait till i get my first turtle for my birthday! i have a 30 gallon set up waiting for him do you know if they are like other animals where if the tank is small they stay small or do i have to get a bigger tank for him??
u do realize that females RES can get up to 13 inches? If u plan on keeping them.. i would start saving up for either a huge tank (125+ gallons) or a stock tank
You do realize that you need BOTH the heat lamp AND the UV lamp, right?
I accompany my turtle with a bunch of guppies, which serve as "emergency food" in case the automatic feeder runs out or otherwise doesn't work somehow.
Also, you may want to add a heating mat under the gravel. I use one of those stick heaters.
Also my turtle's basking area is separate from the tank itself. In fact, the basking area is just about as big as the turtle tank in terms of area.
Actually No, you don't need a UVA/UVB light. You don't need them if you have enough D3 in there diet or you can take them outside to catch some real rays. lol
i would add a small cave or plants in the water and you could add a real plant along with a fake plant because the turtles will eat that to as they get hungry but do not put the fake and real plants in the same spot...you do not want the turtles to eat the fake plants because they can die from that.
I have a baby one. Its reall small. I found it at a lake at a marina. So I named her marina. I set up her tank today. Looks real good and she keeps squeakin so I guess shes happy.
i have two turtles. One never eats and the other eats everything, what do i do? i tried taking the other out and moving it to another tank but it still doesn't eat
to cacoon56.one fish is all it takes.that law is not stupid. think about it.... people and animales eat and drink from that water. is preventable death stupid? there is awways a bigger picture... your stupid.
I have two red eared sliders, that are both 12 yrs old, one male and female. They are in a 20 gallon tank. How much water should I put in, like half the length of the tank??And is the tanks size too small:P??
hey, i had a question, i have a couple bala sharks, and i was wondering if i could put like a big rock in there for a res in their tank, its a 20 gal long.
the biggest two there are both 5 years old and the the other two are 4 years old they are brothers (they were born in the same litter or whatever they call it for turtles lol)
having 4 little guys like you do can create tension aka biting / fighting.. boredom... hmm i believe you can raise the water level so they have more room to swim around
No but they can carry salmonella in their bodies, so for owners they take precautions by thoroughly washing their hands or use any other type anti-bacterial soaps.
i heard that thier ilegal now cause of those "diseases" omg..... i hate these stupid laws, like this one........ "u cant release a fish that u have had in captivity into the wild, because of the "diseases" you will be releasing into the wild" omg soooo stupid.......
i got my turtles from my mom, she got them from some lady who bout them in china town and then they told her they were illegal, they were small, but point is go to china town or something, ak for turtles and i reommend u see the turtle before buying it, make sure its healthy and stuff, and that they are like babies
listen to yyytyyb , he's put some valid points across. Trust me, 4 RES are too many for that tank. And get UVC light, to produce the daylight the need like vitamin d which is crucial for their health.
eya im thinking of getting a turtle but im confused about the lighting and uv etc. is it possible to get a basking light +uva+uvb all in one? can u recomend a certain product?
you know i like the fake plant idea.. but it seems like my turtles hate them. :[ they keep digging it up.. ive seen them both try to dig it out as soon as i put it back in!! T__T so tedious.. should i just take it out all together D: ?
Actualy mines have been doing that too recently idk why but they're now behind my big rock so they cant reach. thinking of getting real plants now cause they're trying to eat the fake ones.
u can also go to ur pet store and get real ones that they can eat, RES's do munch on them and its goood for them just search the ones they should eat and just make sure they are perisite free
u can also go to ur pet store and get rall ones that they can eat, RES's do munc on them and its goood for them just search the ones they should eat and just make sure they are perisite free
i think it should be bigger but its pretty good i put some fish with mine so he stays active hunting it

You should take your turtle to the vet. Maybe there's something wrong with your turtle?

good setup bro but what gallon is it?
having 4 little guys like you do can create tension aka biting / fighting.. boredom... hmm i believe you can raise the water level so they have more room to swim around

No but they can carry salmonella in their bodies, so for owners they take precautions by thoroughly washing their hands or use any other type anti-bacterial soaps.

no not illegal, only illegal if theyre small because you can get salmonella, i believe its turtles with shells under 4 inches, im not sure though
atomicman4 2 years ago

listen to yyytyyb , he's put some valid points across. Trust me, 4 RES are too many for that tank. And get UVC light, to produce the daylight the need like vitamin d which is crucial for their health.

eya im thinking of getting a turtle but im confused about the lighting and uv etc. is it possible to get a basking light +uva+uvb all in one? can u recomend a certain product?
MasterExploderX 3 years ago
Nice setup. all i can say is that give it some plants (fake ones recommended) to stimulate their habitat and such.
also if you still want to use gravel get some bigger ones (big enough so that they wont put them in their mouths.

you know i like the fake plant idea.. but it seems like my turtles hate them. :[ they keep digging it up.. ive seen them both try to dig it out as soon as i put it back in!! T__T so tedious.. should i just take it out all together D: ?
yulxlover4 3 years ago
Actualy mines have been doing that too recently idk why but they're now behind my big rock so they cant reach. thinking of getting real plants now cause they're trying to eat the fake ones.
