|
|
ok in school there were four turtles in a 30 gallon tank. it was horrible no filter no basking area and tons i mean TONS of smal rocks.
well over easter vacation i took them home with me and well i started finding little rocks in the tank that were from school. and im like wat the heak wats goin on here then i thought maybe they were eating the rocks. o fecies i thought to my self how am i goin to get the teacher to let me change it. well of course i was the only one that knew wat to do for them so i started this year after i found out no one was cleaning the filter i left behind for them. u should have seen how much stuff that was stuck in the the rocks it was awfull well im still working on the tank so theres really nothing elso to say. later on ill post some pictures of rocky and rachel the turtles that r now there. its awfull to see wat they do to turtles. and i have a question is it normal to see the vains of a turtle on it plastron? didnt think so.
wat do u think? _________________ Tara Dakota
