I have an adult (6-7 inch shell) male RES that was living in my 55 gallon. I upgraded him to my 75 gallon tank and I turned the 55 gallon into a paludarium. I put all my smaller tropicals (bettas aside) into the tank. Water is already cycled so don't worry. So far there are 5 cherry barbs, 1 otocinclus, 1 swordtail, 5 bronze corydoras, 2 bloodfins, and a baby convict (will move her if she causes problems). Herps are currently just my male FBT (copper variant). How many more FBTs can I add to the tank? 1/3 of the tank is land.

alrighty, now if I can convince the parents...
by the way... my turtle has been in the 75 now for a few days, but he still won't eat his pellets. He always gobbled them down before, but now he'll beg and when you throw them in he turns his nose up at them. He is still eating bloodworms, earthworms, and a variety of veggies (his favorite is zucchini). Worst case scenario I guess I'll stop feeding him pellets, but my mom is freaked out about it (she calls him her turtley friend and gives him pellets, which she calls his treaters).
