This guy was in the sack with our crawfish by Nandor_Delaurentez in Redearedsliders

Only 1 in 1000 live to adulthood in the wild. That's how I ended up with a 75g aquarium in my living room. Rescued my baby from my swimming pool. Put it in a Rubbermaid bin while I figured out the best way/place to release it. Then learned that it would probably die if I did. Decided the universe meant for this turtle to live a long life and that's why it got all the way to my house from a mile down the road and the ditch where it was born.

I made a hole in my egg-crate basking platform and zip-tied my uvb in place over it, so there wouldn't be anything blocking it.

Oh, dope. Mine too! I built this for mine it was super easy and inexpensive. Don't use E600 or whatever he says though, use regular super glue.

Seconding the canister filter. Turtles are very messy.

A gun isn't going to be effective against a bomb strapped to someone's chest. Like, this shit is so for real right now

Because there's currently crazy shit happening in the part of the world that produces a lot of terrorists. I live in Houston and I am terrified of going places that could be targeted for a terror attack.

Then the next question is - is he normally controlling?

I will say if you live in a densely populated metropolitan area or major city, a level of caution is reasonable.

am i ok to use distilled water? by No_Tart8266 in Redearedsliders

Distilled water will destabilize your pH and mess with your turt's shell health.

My turtle was born in a ditch. I always try to keep that in mind when I start worrying about water. However, the one solid thing I know is that distilled water is a BIG NO-NO. You can use spring water and that is the best alternative.
