Hi all!!! I am thrilled to report that Scarlet is doing much, much better!!!:) I followed the advice you guys gave me, and brought her out pretty much every day. Or sometimes just shuffle up her bedding just enough, and give the tank a little mist :cool: After just a couple of times she would...

update on Scarlet!!! Hi all!!! I am thrilled to report that Scarlet is doing much, much better!!! I followed the advice you guys gave me, and brought her out pretty much every day. Or sometimes just shuffle up her bedding just enough, and give the tank a little mist :cool: After just a couple...

I move her out and put her in her soaking bowl, and she seems to enjoy it, but I feel like if I don't do that she won't do it for herself....

Hey all.... I posted a little while back about a slight cricket infestation in my turtles tank (which I have cleared up thank God) but when I brought that up a few of you guys brought to my attention that I may need to separate my 2 turtles. You see, I adopted my turtles about a year ago, and...

We are talking about my two box turtles on this thread.... I keep them in an indoor tank. My tortoise is outside in an enclosure built for him, and I doubt that he eats crickets, but you never know. :D

I am so worried about these little guys getting loose in my house!!! Thank god the screen has them contained.... But that is a good idea, I bet my oscars would love to munch on them! Lol!

Omg!!! About a month ago (I think a little more) I fed my 2 boxie's a bag full of 8 or so crickets, and one of them found some secret hiding spot and chirped away forEVER!!!! (For a week at least) finally, he stopped... Needless to say, I haven't bought any crickets since then. Well yesterday, I...

I feel so torn. Thanks for all of the great advice. Regardless of what I do, I have brought him inside every year when he hibernates anyways because of the risks of burrowing and rain and my fears. I also just like knowing that he's resting at a even temp. For my own peace of mind, I can't help...

Crap!!!! I already covered the hole, and filled it with dirt... Should I uncover it and move the brick?? I can easily do this.... I know that with a little help he would fix it fast. But it's well over a foot deep, and it starts to fork off as it gets deeper. I'm afraid it will get deeper and...

He has a lot of shade. I built his enclosure in the shadiest side of the yard. He has lots of trees over him and several big bushes as well. Even though he gets several hours of direct sun during the afternoon, he has plenty of shady areas. The evenings are super shady. Also, I have made him...

Patches started burrowing a hole a couple of weeks ago right beside a cinder lock in his enclosure. It started small, but grew and now it has gotten so deep that I am beginning to worry about the block caving in, him getting so deep that I won't be able to get him back without ripping apart the...

Is there any special thing I can do to get Patches to chew on a cuddlebone? He wants noting to do with it and never has, but I worry that he gets enough calcium in his diet. I give him a good diet though. I am planning on giving him a soak today, since I have to force soak him... he is a...

Omg.... I thought the same thing, so i looked online that more seasoned torts can lay "up to 30 eggs at one time" this must not be her first rodeo! hehe!! :D

I saw this randomly on facebook, I just got such a kick out of it :D

Well everyone, first I want to thank you guys for all of your advice. I really appreciate all of you helping me out. I felt like crying this morning for a time there!! I could not stand it, and I went and returned the filter. from all of your guys' words, I felt like the filter was not a good...

Ok, well thanks for your tips. I just moved the filter down to a small side table so it's below the waterline now, some people said that could help. Thanks a lot, I appreciate it very much :)

Don't be sorry, and thank you. Obviously I am a beginner with tons of questions. I have done all of these things right, my boyfriend and I have 2 fishtanks, so he has helped me put this filter together, and he mentioned not to clean the media parts (except the foam of course) but now even he is...

I found the box in the pet closet... it says right here on the front, ZooMed Turtle Clean 501 For Aquatic turtle or amphibian tanks up to 30 gal, easy priming external filter for aquatic turtle tanks, vivariums, box turtle pools amphibian set ups or turtle tubs. I mean..... I thought it said...

Petco... The $80 filter we use for our fish aquarium that we got there works wonderfully for our 55 gal tank......
