Photo Gallery :: My new 5 foot fish tank + new turtle

[phobull]

So i recently got a 5 foot fish tank because i wanted to get an arowana please give me your feed back on what you think

I also got a short neck turtle his name is gimpy








Im trying to train him not to be so scared of me by taking him out of the tank to eat but his still the same after 3 weeks any tips guys? i would rather him eat outside of the tank for the sake of knowing that he has to come out to eat kinda thing if that makes sense.

That tank is gorgeous!

What kind of habitat do you have for your turtles???

I wouldn't over handle him since he's a baby. They get stressed so easily and too much can kill him. Soon enough he'll begin to associate you with food, but most turtles take years to come around to people (not that there aren't exceptions).

is that gravel? sorry but you'll have to get rid of it...

er... that big tank is not where the turtle stays in lol

He knows im where food is from because he comes up to the tank when he sees me walking by.

The tank is small like a 2foot since his as big as a 25cent coin, i got some fishes living with him and a log for him to climb up i take a pic of it tonight,

This is a short neck turtle (australian turtle)
