The one in the first vid is slightly larger than my old female was ( regrettably dead )...

Apart from when they're eating - and yes, they should be fed small morsels of food -it is quite an uninteresting turtle to have....

why is that? boring? not much to observe?

Miguel don't you have a few young Mata Matas?

Yes, Seth. I do. ( but also uninteresting as turtles go....

They do not even start to compare with snappers and musks...

The "observation" lies in that there is nothing to observe beyond feeding time, Jerry.

They look awesome. But I find them boring.

Sorry.

Pretty true. The ones that were at the lfs I used to work at would be in the same position/spot for days! Even during feeding time, there would hardly be any movement. But they are very cool looking turtles.
