I was needing a new tank for my DBT and so we went tank shopping. Well Used tanks here cost a dollar a gallon if you can find them...... not a bad deal well we couldn't find any .. I was very disappointed. We stopped at Lowes to just look around and see what they had we have found some things there before. well we are walking through the section for the bathrooms and there sits a bath tub... Yes a bath tub and it was only $45 so we bought it found something to block the holes and later on we are going to come up with a drain so that when we clean it we can hook our pump up to it and clean it really easily. I'm so excited I know it sounds kind of odd but I think it will be great. Its a standard 5ft tub so lots of swimming room for Soup (whom we found out was a girl for sure today)
I have 5 RES, 2 ASN, and 1 DBT

Bathtubs are a good idea... I've seen some nice clear acrylic ones that I thought would make a great tank.

Yeah as soon as we finish setting it up. I think you could do a lot of fun things with a bath tub for your turtle I think I might find some of those no slip stickers that are turtle shaped and put them on the bottom of the tub.
