Sorry For The Big Size Of The Image..I Forgot To Resize It...And I Can't Find A MVB Or UVB Bulb In My Locality..I Live In India...Its Pretty Hot Here..Always 35 To 37 C.... So No Need For UVA.... And I Have Kept The Tank beside A large Window.... It Allows Direct Sunlight...(And I Keep The Window Open All Times) ...As For The Dust Problems With Windows... I Clean The Water Once In 3 Days..... Gonna Buy A Filter Soon... I Have Made A Temp. Basking Spot For The Sliders.... Will Find A Good One Soon....
...I Know UVB Is Very Neccessary..Its Really Hard To Find In India.... And If I Order It Online..I Get One With American Electric Switches Which Aren't Compatible In India.... So Direct Sunlight Is The Best Bet For Me.... And I Changed The Bedding To Fine Sand.... And Removed The Gravel As i Read Here That Gravel is Ingested By Sliders...

I Also Have A Star Tortoise..Its Kept Beside The Tank In A Large Enclosure....

Thanks For Reading My Big Post!!!! :lol:
Good Day ! :D

I have to say, I looooove the colorful 'pebbles' you have! Absolutely beautiful!
And your RES are cute as well, of course! ;)
