    Definitely fast fish so they don’t become turtle food. You could do a small school of danios. They swim together, are hardy, and can out swim the turtles.

    Personally I think that some lyretail mollies or some sort of smaller tetra (rummynose?) or maybe even some fancy guppies. Just some extra fast moving color would help the tank pop in my opinion. Nonetheless, you’re on a roll dude. I’m absolutely loving your videos and what you’re doing. You’ve inspired me so much, and are super underrated. Keep it up

  • @kristykeimig3498

    great video. just wanted to add...the uva/uvb bulb helps them to absorb calcium. with out the light they can suffer from metabolic bone disease, and that causes the shell to become deformed and they also wont shed scutes and cause retained scutes but yea there are other reasons.. Also if you can use the lamp stand holder instead of setting the lights on the screen its waaay more beneficial for their health. When you place it on glass or screen it disrupts the amount of rays and then they dont get to absorb as much and makes the light seem super weak. so if you can avoid it, its the best.

    hi, I have had a turtle for 5 years now but I have just started to do research. Last year I upgraded to a 350 stock tank outside, I have 3 turtles, a 6 inch, and two 5 inches, it is currently NOT filtered. I was looking at what GPH a new filter should be some places say it should be times 5 but a filter for 1750 gallons seems like a lot. Help I don't know what to do.

    *Help Needed: I have had two baby yellow bellied sliders for about 6 months now with no issue, just recently as it has gotten colder (I didn't have a heater) they started to get lethargic not eating as much. So I bought a heater, replaced my heating bulb - but they still don't swim around that often and only eat sparingly almost not even interested in the feeding pellets. They are just sitting in a corner at the bottom the tank rn. If anyone has any suggestions I would really appreciate it! I don't know what else to do - i have checked for any visible sign of illness and they look okay. The tank is a 20 gallon high, water temp 79 degrees, food mix of pellets and shrimp, and I do regular water changes.

    It doesn’t take too long, matters how much water you have, but turtles are messy buggers so about weekly ( like every Saturday is easiest for me) just make sure when you add more water back to condition it, but about 10-20 minutes and pretty easy in my opinion
