HAHA!!!! I dunno...(peers closely at the photo... )The artificial bonsai moved with the turtles, so I guess turtles still grow in trees...

It's hard to tell in the picture, but Bold is actually standing on the tree, not on Pinstripe's shoulders. That's what they told me, anyway...

Bold and Pinstripe are doing well. They have both grown quite a bit (for mud turtles), and they aren't as chompy as they used to be. If course, now that they're in their 40 breeder tank, I don't handle them nearly as often, either. They both have been happy and content to eat the Hikari Sinking Carnivore Pellets, so I don't get the demands for live food that I used to get. At two years old now, I think they have mellowed out a bit.How are these guys doing?
Thanks! Those pictures were taken by my significant other, which explains the quality (he's really good at it!). And I think he had just come back from his assignment a couple hours away (he's telecommuting for the moment), and one of the the first things he did was clean the turtle tank for me.They look really good and CLEAN! Too cute!
It's great when the filter is happy and functioning well... Sometimes trying on the soul when there's an equipment problem you can't quite figure out, though.Gorgeous! I just never could bring myself to get into aquatic turtles ( the water thing) lol
Yeah.. i like just deeling with when jack poops in his water and i have to rinse it out lolIt's great when the filter is happy and functioning well... Sometimes trying on the soul when there's an equipment problem you can't quite figure out, though.
Thank you!The turtles look great! Very beautiful coloration!
Since the girls moved into their 40 breeder tank several months ago, we've been using a ZooMed Turtle Clean 511 canister filter. It isn't too bad (now that I'm a little more comfortable with cleaning it), but after a couple/few months, the clear plastic tubing between the intake and the filter and the filtered water outlet gets really dingy. Then if/when there's an issue with the filter, it's like flying blind because of not being able to really see the water flow through the tubing.What filter are you using currently?

There's only five or six inches of water in the tank.
