Hello my name is Gen.
I got a red eared slider in October 2014, so about 5 months ago.
My turtles name is Bulbasaur.
I just attempted to measure Bulba, and it said the shell was roughly 9.5cm.
The store keeper said to feed bulba twice a day, keep the lamp and uv light on for 12 hours a day and that all I needed was a tank, basking area, food, a fliter and conditioner for his water.
I clean the tank once a week, and I feed bulba 5-7 pellets twice a day.
The conditioners are suppose to last 40 days but because bulba bites and scratches at it, it only last 1-2 weeks.
My questions are, how much should I be feeding bulba and what do I need for the tank?
