newly adopted FRT

Bad ass!

Just acquired a RES today. Got him in rubbermaid for now. Gonna grow him in that until I can get a 55 gallon setup. The kids love this thing....a lot more interactive than the fish for them....although I love my 75 gallon fish setup...hehe

congrats.

now this FRT is temporarily with the bigger male in a 3'x1.5'x1.5'. i can't wait for the 6'x2.5'x28".

The eye, looks like edema to me..

when i took this pic, he just happen to close his eyes. yes. turtles have eyelids.

Yeah the wife saw the turtle in the rubbermaid and said "he needs a larger tank"...

I was like SCORE.

haha

so that is suppose to be a trick.



the FRT is getting much stronger after all the swimming. hope that it will remain as it is to build up more strength on its flippers. i doubt it had a good swim for a very long time.

That is a very nice turtle He seems to have some shell erosion, no wonder considering what he has been true. You should put him apart just in case, the last thing you want is for your older turtle to cach something from him
