Okay so yesterday I was fishing on my kayak and I landed a good sized bass. At this time the bass started jumping. As I'm kayaking toward the other side of the pond I see a little floating "rock" I grab it and guess what. It wasn't a rock! It was a little snapping turtle with its yolk sack still attached. Decided to take him home and get it to grow big enough to sell. Or put in the pond. Didn't wanna see him eaten so I took him. He is one inch. Here he is. uploadfromtaptalk1348489110018.jpg

Right now I put him in my snail breeding tank which is far too small for a snapper. So I'm gonna set up a 10 gallon to get him to about 2 inches then ill put him in the 55. My Oscar can swallow him so ill wait Till he gets bigger. Don't wanna risk it. I'm gonna set up a 10 gallon and combine these tanks into it uploadfromtaptalk1348489316324.jpg
The left tank is my low lighting fry/plant tank. Anyone interested in buying him once he grows a little bigger message me. I can get eastern painted turtles and snappers of all sizes if anyone wants any. I am gonna put two minnows in with him. Then gonna set up the 10 today. I'm missing school today. I can set it up maybe today.

Cool find!
 
Saw an interesting turtle tank the otger day. 90 gallans. Ill post a pic. You can actually see the ramp to access the top part when the turtle wants to bask. I thought it was so cool!

That's awesome I use to have one named Bowser. I found him at 1" after a huge rainstorm in Texas. Way better than those red eared sliders imo
