If you ever upgrade to an aquarium, email me at deaconjonesob@gmail.com and I'll hook you up with almost everything you need. (Lamps, screen top, lights, etc)

I have had many turtles they are a little work to keep the tank clean but it's not too bad. If you have kept fosh before then you will be used to it. I have one female res that we have had for 13 years, a male for about 6years and, just got 2 hatchlings that I believe are from my pair. I have them in my koi pond but I had the femal in fishtanks for a long time. I would strongly suggest you do a bare bottom tank. It will be much easier to keep clean. Just paint the bottom of it on the underside for looks. Do not use a glass heater they will brake it.
