right now Murtle is in a 40 gal, she needs a new tank. What size should I get her. We are looking at a 75 gal. Should I stay with that or go bigger? I don't want to have to keep buying so what size should I go with? She is suppose to be a map turtle,female. Shes around 5 or 6 inches long now. I got her as a little baby and I've had her almost 2 yrs. Thanks for your help.

ht would be good but remeber the females get big so if u have time/money go wit bigger but heres the deal ur supposed to have 10 gall. for every inch of turtle so if its 6 in then it will out grow it in a while
