water turtle

Hello! I just found this strange white stuff inside my 1 year old yellow-bellied slider aquarium. The texture is soft, and it spreads out thin. This has never happened before. Does anyone know what this is? Not long ago, I fed her romaine lettuce and cleaned its tank. Could that be related? 🤔

I am planning to build a pond in my garden (north west England) I have been looking into european pond turtles but I can't find whether they are compatible with fish. I would like to keep a turtle and fish if possible, the pond will be around 2ft deep and around 36 square foot. Does anyone know...

Hello and thanks for reading my post! I decided to get a stinkpot musk turtle; I don’t have him just yet. I’m in the “researching phase”. I was thinking of a bare bottom tank with a few river rocks for climbing scattered around. Someone said they’d get enrichment from sand. Is bare bottom and...

Can i see pictures of your Eastern Mud turtle tank? How much water do i need for my Eastern Mud turtles? I'm trying to figure out how to do the tank. I have been told they are poor swimmers and i noticed this little one can't get on the basking/land area when trying to get out of the water...
