I'll be bringing him in this winter and all winters to follow. Right now he'll be able to winter with the 4 koi and 2 goldfish in my 55 gallon tank, but once they all get bigger they'll have to winter over in a big rubbermaid tub. That's the plan at least.


Thanks have never heard of that type turtle . Yes ,the rubbermaid tubs are great but lots other stock tank companies which might make shapes that might suit your needs bit better .

A friend has the kiddie pool size 150 gall and seems more room as far as actual swimming area than most rubbermaids. Well made also.
I don't work for the co lol but find rubbermaid very limited as far as sizes for fish go as most not long/wide enough mostly height.

Heosemys grandis does indeed show allot of personality and its a very friendly turt species. Of all Heosemys is defenetly the most bold one.

Cool video. I hand feed most of my turtles as well.
Its strange. We only had him a week and accidentally found out that he would do it. Its almost as if he prefers eating that way.

Louie,
I actually meant those stock tanks but couldn't remember what they were called :headbang2I may just pick up an end of summer kiddie pool deal
