I was wondering if I can put bamboo plants in my tank. We'll they eat them, ignore them, is this plant poisonous? There just the chinese bamboo plants that are cheap that you can buy at most stores.

Thx!

There is a kind of bamboo that is poisonous to the turtle, it is called "Heavenly Bamboo (Nandina domestica) 2" it appears on this site:

I would not put bamboo in, just in case you might have that kind. Very Happy
