map turtles info

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
whats a good thing to fed them to get them to grow fast and fat
 
just woundering how big do snappers need to be to breed and does anyone sell ones that big, my buddy is looking for a big snapper
 
well a good thing to feed cooters and sliders(i dont have any personal experience with maps) to get them to grow quick is reptomin sticks, dried shrimp, crickets, lettuce, shrimp, and just about any kinds of fish food. jsut feed em somethin differnt every night. something that has worked well for me is always having a piece of lettuce anchored at the bottom of the tank and rosy reds always in stock in the tank for between meal snacks.

just to let you know... you cant really determine maturity by size it goes by age... a alligator snapper matures somewhere between 11-13 yrs of age.....and a common... well im not to sure;)
