My name is stacy and my daughters name is lily. Her father bought her a baby (1.5 inch) yesterday. I did not want another pet and was horrified to find out that a turtle that small should not have been sold. I know her father meant well,after all he can not resist his adorable 9 year old. So now we have this wee little turtle and must some how give it our best!

Welcome....
That little turtle can grow to be 8" in a few years.It's gonna need at least a 75 gallon tank and all kinds of stuff i'm sure you had no clue you needed to buy.
Please read the care sheet on the main site, and learn as much as you can....The sooner the better for your turtle.
