  • just one thing but isnt the gravel a bit to small

    turtles eat gravel if its too small

  • @WildUnderWater its sand not gravel. If they eat sand they can passit easily.

  • Is it difficult maintaining sand as a substrate?

  • @redearedslider1 Nope, a lot easier than gravel or rocks!

  • how long does the filter keep ur tank clean

  • @ilikebabyturtle I clean it out about every 3 months.

  • @redearedslider1 yay people say sand is hard to clean but all i do is take a net with small holes and sift through the sand it gets all the uneaten food poop and other things out
