    Suggestion:
    Even though it’s a temporary tank, and some more decorations! Turtles in general like to explore. Give her some more plants, hiding space, ect to explore.
    Overall, good work! A great video!

      It’s just submersible heater. You can pick it up at Petsmart or Walmart.

    How do you know if you have a male or female

    • @aquatickeeper3356
      @aquatickeeper3356  Рік тому

      The female has a flat bottom. The make has a slight curve.

      What made me think mine was a female is once started to notice eggs in the tank

      Right and leaving them at petco is a better option? Or bringing them to their natural environment? Neither is better than caring for them as a pet. Wake up! people that adopt them from stores are saving them if they care for them correctly!

      Comment on the pet stores page if you want to promote removal from the wild you clearly know little about how this stuff works

      If u cared about the animal the worst thing you could do is discourage adoption
