Clean Pond!

So I took some pics of my water turtles today. The ponds had an algea bloom for a little while and I felt kind of guilty today becasue I posted a pic of two turtles. So I cleaned it!

Dirty pond = (

Look at this beast

Clean!

Thanks guys!

my son has a turtle! i still find them creepy tho, they make me jump... they're just so fast and slick... and i don't know about others but my son's turle is a TOTAL spaz and whenever i'm in the room i can feel his beady little eyes staring me down!

Green water is a b*tch!!
the only way I know to beat it is a ultra violet sterilizer.

yeah i don't like the turtles either. Totally different animal!!



ps I would bet that the turts like the green water better

lol I know what you are talking about with the beady eyes! Yeah turtles are really cool , and fun to keep. I would never breed them though. Tortoises are cool to breed.

Josh I am in south west florida ( cape coral )

I like turtles, I think there cool. Like your pond. My little one is only a 35 gal pond (has one gold fish and three minnows) had its algea bloom and I got it cleaned this week too.
My daughter has the Turtles 4 RES. She's talking to her husband about building a pond for them. They are still pretty small. I'll show her your pics, I think this is just what they need. Not a cement pond her husband was thinking about making. Thanks for the idea

Wow, you must have a great home being able to house all these turtles and tortoises. Thats awesome
