Just picked up a custom glass 6' x 2' x 2' tank that we want to use for a turtle or turtles. The wife and I knew we needed a "big" tank for turtles so we found this on Craigslist with custom stand, and all accessories need for a Freshwater Fish tank (rocks, under gravel filter, plants heaters, 10gal quarantine tank and accessories) for $350. We thought it was a good deal. It had 2 HOB filters.
So we are wanting to put in turtles. We are thinking this one "might" be big enough for a full sized red eared slider, or at least something like a map turtle.
I have a feeling that the HOB filters won't work for this so we would love any recommendations on what type of filtration to use. We are planning on using about 12-18" of water. So anywhere from 90-135 gallons of water.
This is a 2nd Birthday present to our little boy (and his mommy). They Both LOVE turtles.
Any other suggestions on what we need for this would also be appreciated.
