100 Gallon Fish/Turtle Tub Update

[Vicious_Fish]

Here are a few updated shots of my fish and turtle combo, 100 gallon rubbermaid stock tank. I just got a bunch of free water hyacinth this weekend too from the nursery down the street. Seems I found a plant that the turtles aren't interested in eating for a change.

Stock list:

1 male Red Cheek Mud Turtle
1 male and 1 female Stinkpot Musk Turtle
1 female Convict Cichild
1 male Paratilapia polleni
1 Pterygoplichthys pardalis
10+ Giant Danios

Sweet setup. I have a tub I would love to do this to. Is it easy to maintain? Thanks for sharing.

The Musk Turtles were being lazy but my Red Cheek Mud was all about getting his picture taken.

It's not too bad to maintain but I would like to get a larger canister filter for it. Right now I do about a 30-40% water change twice a week on it.

Looks awesome! Do you have a hard time keeping the Hyacinth alive indoors? It's extremely difficult to keep inside I find...lack of air flow and strong lighting.

Thanks. I just got the hyacinth so we'll see how it does. I had a bunch of water lettuce in there but it slowly disappeared thanks to the turtles eating it.
