I'm keeping the smaller turtles in a different enclosure because my turtles are quite good eaters that would eat anything smaller then them. If you can find another of my post then there's a picture of my other enclosure. Right now then I'm not worried about any of my turtles getting bullied or anything, except for the small ones which I keep an eye on.
I'm saving up money from any sources I get them at to get a fairly larger tank. There's going to be 4 turtles in the tank being honest. I also have an explanation why I can't follow the 10 gallon rule.

Almost done with the tank. I bet you can't spot my pleco! (He's above the bubble bar a bit, on the back of the glass.)

I just finished adding more rocks to the bottom of the tank as a substrate. Most of them are the size of a tightly crumpled piece of paper (best comparison I can think of) or the hatchling's shell in general. Are there anyways to move the air pump's tubing around so the way you like it? I heard suction cups are good.

I hope i can place my tank indoor ...
Placing outdoor was a bust
you cant see the turts properly with the reflection of sunlight
And yeah algae were all crazy spreading the whole tank

Do you have some sort of cover on that? They are likely to climb out with the water level that high.

Where did you keep them before the upgrade??

For real?

In his pictures it looks like he's only keeping a RES in there.

He responded, he is keeping four turtles in there.

I second the post about a cover. Your basking area is right under the top of the tank (which is good because the water is high to provide the most swimming room) so your turtles can very easily escape.

Don't get a screen lid as it will filter out the majority of the beneficial rays.
