  • Also, Turtle's do better in tanks where they can hop out of the water to dry off their shells and bask in UVB/UVA lighting to digest their food properly. I'm sure you've already done the research if you own them, but there are really cheap items you can buy that suction to your tanks glass in order to give them something to climb out of the water to completely dry off.

  • @desaad37 thanks for the concern but i have all that stuff. i would have it setup but i wan't done putting the tank back together.

  • You just saved me some money. Thanks man, I just thought that my fluval u2 had burnt out, and was going to throw it away until I can across your video. I wish I had saved the instructions from when I bought it.

  • @jalbm222 haha np, im lucky that when i took it apart i wouldn't break it because honestly i didn't know if it was supposed to come off the first time i did it.

  • Cute aquarium. I can't put fake plants in my tank or my turtles would try to eat it. LoL. They liked gnawing on the basking platform I used to have. Anyways, thanks for reminding us about cleaning the motor part of the filter. I just got this filter a couple days ago (what my latest turtle video is about). It's the best filter EVER! I have to get used to the silence of it. Hehe.

  • @nerice6 haha mine started eating their dock too a while ago so i got a corner dock... its plastic and they haven't found a way of eating it yet.
