charlet that male has some wolverine style claws man...nice looking turts...

for the threads Q...if you get a baby obviously wont know the sex so plan for the worst which is a larg footlong female which i would say 125g would suffice...notice i say suffice...
if it turns out to be a male then damn he is one luck guy to have a 125 :)
thats just my two sense...

Good advice.....vice!

Lol, yeah I was checking out those claws too! I don't think I've ever seen them that long before.
 
That's Spaz lol hes defiantly male.. He always loses nails and regrows them I really think the female get tired of him scraping there face trying to breed with them lol They are all different species.. Red Ear Slider (Big Mama) Yellow Belly Cooter (Flow) and then Missouri Map Turtle (Spaz)

it is not a stand ard 20 gallon it is 2 10 gallon tanks put togeter front to back so it is a square 20" x 20" x 12" (l x w x h)
 
Thats an absurdly small tank for an RES man. I could see a mud or musk turtle in one, but thats about it. I would go at the very least 50 gallons for a single RES. And there are ponds, waterland tubs, rubbermaids, and tons of other caging options.
 
my husband and his friend was cleaning the turtle tank out ( i usely do it but I had to work that day) and put them in the new unused kiddie pool were using for the outside pond for them this coming summer.. at the time we had taken in a stray dalmatian.. that what it did to him got him in his mouth and chomped down on him.. sorry to say my husbands friend kicked the dog in the side of the face to let him go of spaz.. let just say the dog found a nice home on a farm...
