What are you using for filtration?

 

[NickkV]

nothing at the moment i just set got the tank.. what should i use for a 100 gallon tank

 

[aclockworkorange]

Fluval FX5 is never a bad choice...

 

[NickkV]

ok thank you

 

[xrayjeeper83]

with that turtle you wont be able to keep any fish

 

[rideit6578]

agreed^^

...except for feeder fish ofc

Dont they get rather large? Probably should be more concerned with a legit stand and filter and not adding fish. Where did you get him?

 

[Bazinga]

yea where did you get that guy?
on another note hes pretty much alone in there and thats how it should stay, look into a bigger tank with more of a foot print, also have some sort of landing for it so it doesnt have to be in the water 24/7

You might wanna look into setting up a pond for that guy, he is pretty big. And for fish to go with him? Nothing, he will eat anything you put in there. And feeders are nasty, plus you will need alot to feed that guy. Get frozen tilapia or something.
