Your DBT set up looks fantastic. Looking at these pictures I felt like I was outside looking into a pond. We have a really big pond here that empties out into the bay. Right in that spot where it empties out there is brackish waters and we always used to see lots of them basking on logs. They always look like they have a smile on there face. I really enjoyed seeing these pictures. Thank you. Oh...I love your little Razor Back. One of my favorites. Love their big eyes.

Very nice pictures. Your setup is very good too. I like watching the DBT and the razorback which clings to the plant :D

Thanks everyone! The turtles seem I like all the driftwood and plants. Here are a few of the fish in the tank. Jack my jack Dempsey cichlid, some of the cories, a rubberlipped placo, few mollies in there as well. So far only two fish have gotten eaten, most the plants and such help I think

The cichlid maybe will attack the mollies too :D

Mine have stopped eating the fish as well. Now they just let the fish swimming anywhere.

Your turtles look so cute! But I have a question: why the shell of your razor back musk is black? I have a yellow one and never see a black one before...

The cichlid has never attract anything, people say they are agressive but this one isn't, it's been 6/7 months now, I want to get a 80-100 gallon sometime next year

Cool pictures bruh. Very nice turtles and other critters. I would love to see a picture of your whole set up just to get an idea of how big it is and how the whole set up comes together.

thanks for sharing

I love all water turtles, but to me the razor back's are the most photogenic. Just look at those faces. I'd like to see the whole set up too please.

Here area few. It's only a 40 gallon, I want to get a bigger one like 100-150 gallon and do kind of the same thing all live plants and driftwood.

If you buy a 100 gallon tank, do you think the razorback can do well with deeper level of water?

I'm curious of that as well since I also like to upgrade my aquarium to much bigger size :)

The water 15inches deep right now they have no problem, with enough wood and plants they so fine mine swim just as well as the Dbts

I would aslo look into a shorter and wide tank not tall.

I applaud you. You take care to set up your animals in the way they should be PLUS you are very talented with that camera. It is very enjoyable to look at your pictures.
