im not sure where you can get one locally (like a pet shop) but they are available at www.drsfostersmith.com

they are like 3 bucks plus shipping

and id just like to add that although the veggie clip is great and greatly reduces mess, turtles still cut and shred while its in the mouth so dont be surprised if you still see pieces of lettuce in your filter.

for some reason, my turtles dont eat the lettuce if its floating around, only if its on the clip haha so i still see pieces of lettuce in my filter.

I just came across (& bought) a pack of 5 small plastic coloured clips with large suction cups for $1 at a local dollar store. No metal, so I figured they were perfect for a turtle tank.
