Hi, everyone. I am new to this forum. I love turtles and have always had a fascination with them. I have mainly kept red eared sliders in the past as a kid, but had to get them new homes as it was tough to keep up with them. Now, I have decided to get some again. I want to find out detailed specifics about the other aquatic turtles besides just red eared sliders. My husband does not share my passion and unfortunately does not want me to have more than a few so I need to narrow my choices down to a breed(or maybe two) that I like the best. I hope to learn very much from everyone here and share some of my experiences too. I look forward to seeing you all on the forums.

Hi, and welcome to the board. Good choice in deciding to get turtles again. They are awesome. I myself, a first time owner, have two RES's, and they are great. I don't know much about other breeds, but I know that RES's are the easiest to care for and are the most hardy.
