It seemed like I was always filling the waterfall in my red foots enclosure and I couldn't figure out why it was always so low. Then I found the reason why. turbo likes to hang out at it and drink the water. She stands with her little legs over the bottom of it and just drinks away.

Too funny to watch. At least now I know where the water is going and I don't have a leak in it. I guess she prefers this to her water bowl.

:D She even has to work a bit to get that water. :D I would bet that nature taught them that running water is better quality water. Glad it's not a leak. ;)

That is so cute! May I know where you got your waterfall from? Zoomed? Exoterra?

I have that same problem in my outside stream and waterfall. I came to the conclusion that the fish were drinking it. :rolleyes:
