Let's see any turtle owners tanks! I currently have a little snapper in a 3 gallon tank for like a week then I'm gonna put him in a 10 gallon then a 55 when he's big enough. Stock and pics please!

I wouldn't even waste money with an 55 gal, I go right ahead to one around 220 or more. CSTs grow incredibly fast, their growth rate will surprise the hell out of you. I bought mine last June at Repticon as an hatching at quarter size and now a year and some change later, she is 10 inches long and almost that wide, a 55 wouldn't even be near big enough for her now
 
I have a loggerhead in a 40.

I have two snappers - a 55 is good for a half year at best - don't even bother - spend your money on either a very wide tank, or a pond. (If you go with a pond, don't forget they can climb, so make sure he can't reach the top.
 
I have a 4 inch Chinese softshell in a 29 gallon, moving him too a 50 gallon in a week.
