fx5 for these small turtles?
and in such a small tank, he ll find the turtles getting spinned around and not getting a chance to pick up food at all, cause it ll get sucked in before they ll even get a chance to

plus i believe turtles are supposed to be pond animals
if you do keep them in tanks, arent you supposed to give them a dry area and all to rest on?
the cannister filter needs to be sunked into the tank enough to get the force pumped BACK into the filter, so that said.. the tank is full of water then? no dry land? or even a log?


to OP, try going to home depot, to buy eggcrate and diy under gravel filters, its not really that hard
search it up
