Equipment Review and Discussion :: Bubble Wall?

[Brianthedog18]

I currently have a bubble wall in my tank. It's placed in front of where the dock is and creates a nice effect. I also head that they hellp the circultation in the tank. Do these bubbles disturb the turt? Because when I came home today, there were bubbles all along the top of the water (almost like a foam). And I was wondering if that prevented him from coming up for air easily. THanks for the help.

My turtle bites at them like a dog does when you shoot water from a hose at them.

Adjust the air pressure if there are too many bubbles.

I just bought a bubble wall today for my turts, and for about an hour neither one of them would go near it! They would rather swim through the plastic plant instead...

Then Spanky creeped up on it and poked his nose about the base of it - then began biting at the bubbles...

Now he like to float above it gettig tickled I imagine!

I haven't seen the little one go through it yet though, prob still a little unused to it.

They are a nice addition to the tank.

Hammy, your baby is so tiny, maybe the current of the bubble wall is just too strong for him.. give him time to grow, I'm sure he'll enjoy it too!!!
