Got a new 35 Gal tank all set up for the little guy, seems to enjoy it so far.

cool little set up. Has he started to eat the mangrove plant in there yet? If not, he probably will eventually.
 
Haha not let, but my Map when it was in his tank constantly went after it.
 
Cool little stinkpot. Looks like you got one of Northern origin. I have a pair of them I keep in a 100 gallon stock tank.
 
Yeah, I was looking for a Southern Variation cause I wanted a black one, but no luck.

I have one of each. My male was found near where I live as a hatchling and the female I picked up at a reptile show and she's from Florida.

That is awesome Viciousfish, personally I am thinking of adding a Striped Mud Turtle but no firm decision yet. Anyone ever use the Reptisun 2.0 Florescent lights? I put a MVB light over the cage today, but he hated it and hid from the light all day. So I took it off and set the reptisun 2.0 over the tank, since musk are not as prone to basking, would this be enough UVB light for him?
