55 gallons is no where near the size for a snapping turtle. I know ur just being sarcastic but still. I know how big these things get. You may think I'm a stupid little kid but I know more than you would expect about turtles. A 180 would house a snapping turtle for a long time and possibly life depending on its size. Also depending on the dimensions. But anything about 6' long and 3' wide should do the job. Which I believe is standard 180 dimensions. But, these guys should be in ponds. I'm not the first person to grow out a turtle for a pond or possible sale. So don't act surprised. I know what I'm doing.

I never changed my opinion about you. If you know what you are doing, then why you asking about the questions about the snappers to see if they are harmless? I would check on the laws to see if it is legal to sell the wild caught turtles. No offense but you act like newbie.

Yes I've seen a full grown unstunted oscar in a 39 bow front. I'll see if my uncle has any pics. He had it about 5 years ago. It grew up from about 1.5" to full grown in that tank.

But is it a full 14" healthy oscar free of HITH?

I believe it was around 13" and a great looking red oscar. I'll get pics next time I see him if he has any.

Ain't you that kid always overestimated the weight and the size of fish as usual?

My uncle sold him after 3 years because he killed every single thing that hit the water. And he jumped out numerous times and splashed water all the time. He got far too aggressive

Bet the oscar was trying to escape from the 39gal so badly.

I've never kept snappers. I'm always open to knowledge from others. Hey you can never know everything. I know a lot about a large percentage of other turtle species. Snappers are fairly knew to me. I was asking questions to get answers to teach me knew things.
