i was wondering about the basking light,should i leave it on for 12 hours (so she can get some sleep) or 24 hours?

i also wanted to know if i could dipp some of the pellets in tuna juice(brand:chicken of the sea). for her to enjoy or should i just drop some tuna into her tank?


MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE.
THANKS

basking lights don't have to be on for the whole day cz they get some night in the wild so it's best if u divide it 12/12. but the heat light should be on always to moderate the temps.

for tuna, yes u can do it either way but i personally suggest feeding it in a separate container cz it's so messy and oily. just don't overdo it cz u know tuna has many fats that are not good for turtles unless given as treats (once every 1-2 weeks). but BEWARE: they go crazy after tuna Smile

merry christmas
