Hi I'm Meaghan.

I have a baby RES we origionally were gifted 2 back in September from my SIL, who got them in NYC from a lady selling them in the steet. Unfortunantly one of them I believe was quite ill from the begining, never gained weight, never really ate much and sadly passed. The living RES has however grown, is quite active & healthy, I believe may possibly be male? from the litle reasearch I have done. He currently resides in a 15 gallon tank (which is due for an upgrade) along with 4 Tiger Barbs.

I have been lurkng around for quite some time since I recieved the RES as I had no idea how much was actually involved when adopting turtles, this site has helped tremendously so I decided to join.
