new box turtle enclosure!!

i really like the overstocked fish tank look so... why not turtles??

It looks good but you should get a 50gallon rubbermaid tub. They get ALOT more room that way.

it does not look good!

it was a joke, i took the pic at a LFS near where im staying right now. its been going uphill since last time i stayed here. at least there fish are alive in the tanks. but the reptiles are crowded! 12 box turtles in a small dog cage. 11 iguanas in a 10g tank. 8 red ear slider in a half full 10g! the only reason theyre still in buisness is because they are in a mall!!

i forgot to mention the substrates.. the box turtles were on seeds. and they had baby sulcata tortoises on seeds, that they were obviously eating and not digesting right. you could see it in there poo all over the cage. lizards and snakes on what looks like a mix of dirt/soil and a little bit of bark
