Tank's New 55 Gallon Turtle Aquarium

This is Tank's new setup. He has two floating platforms to sun on, with a heating light and an ultraviolet light. There are two large rocks and a piece of wood covered with algae, which Tank sometimes nibbles. Some Java Moss and Java Ferns have attached themselves to them as well. I have also caught Tank eating these. The floor of the aquarium is covered in small round stones and a piece of raw rose quartz. There are some water Hyacinth in there but we're not sure if they will stay or not. There is also a heater to maintain the correct temperature as well as a filter that is an inch or two below the surface. Tank loves this filter and sleeps comfortably on top of it just below the surface all night.

People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

@woodsta1992 - Turtles need a lot of water!!! They need a turtle dock thats suitable for their size & weight & that is enough. The rest needs to be water as they are more wet than dry animals. They love to swim & they only come onto land to dry out & bask. I wish that some people on here would put a few hours into reading up on their pets before coming on here & telling people incorrect information. It doesnt help the turtle owner or the turtle! :-(

Hey dumbass dip shit, how much water do you need to drown your turtle? You need to do your research before you take an animal out of its enviroment. How would you like it if you had to spend the rest of your peice of shit ass in a small room? What a putts. Your mother should be proud.

@randy12368 Ok dumbass, red eared sliders love water, they arent on land very much, only to bask in the light. This is a perfect setup for the little guy. The more water the better for these turtles. Put em in only a couple of inches of water and they get stressed and get sick or die. And these turtles are perfectly happy by themselves. You really need to educate yourself before looking like a complete ignorant dipshit.

@randy12368 you are a dumbass. Turtles 1)spend most of the time in the water and 2) dont get along with other turtles,unless its mating season. Also, you really cant tell the males from the females until theyre adults, and i for one havebnever seen turtles for sale that are bigger than 2-3 inches. If you accidentally get 2 males, by the next say you'll have 1, maybe none, because they killed eachother. I do agree that hhere should be a littoe less water, but you dont have to call him an "ig

[randy12368]

How much water is enough anyway asshole, enough that your turttle has a hell of a time getting to its tiny floating platform? What book did you read, one wrote by an ignorant dipshit like yourself? Interesting your video does not show the turttle actually making it out of the water. Or maybe you helped it out after it drowned you fucking dick. What a dumbshit and don't even know it. Why not get it a mate, must be lonely by its self. What a prick. Some people don't deserve pets.
