Hey everyone! I was searching Wikipedia last night for RESs when the page linked to this website! I've had my RES, Speedy, for about . . . 3 or 4 years, I think? When I found the main website and then the forum I felt so rotten, because I have been neglecting my poor RES for so long! Now I feel his tank is way too small, I need a basking dock and a basking lamp for him, smooth river rocks covering the bottom of his tank instead of the waaay overused gravel I'm using now, possibly some snails to clean up after him, real water plants or at least a few more fake ones . . . So much poor Speedy is missing out on! Guess I really have to start saving money for the little guy so his tank can look half as good as the ones I've seen in the photo gallery.
Whew, this website and forum are life-savers!
