Very much south..
I got a Matamata today, 5 inches more or less. A beaut. Is there any way to have her feed on dead fish?

Thank you:)
 
Wow, awesome turtle! I have never had one nor have I ever seen one for sale. You might be able to switch your Mata over to a diet of frozen fish and pelets. What are you feeding it now? Post some pics!
 
im one for pics...what were they feeding it at the store you bought it from...i would assume it would take to frozen fish...
 
Find out if currents are best for them. If they do like having a current, see if using a powerhead would work if it doesn't take dead fish.
 
Oddball had a pair before they died recently. Cool turtle.
 
I 'll try for some pix..I had her sent from Germany. Will call them tomorrow.
