That species is absolutely gorgeous...I have a couple of the 2 for 5 red ear sliders that a little girl begged to be taken a few years back because her mom would not let her keep those stinky things....so they are still with me....luckily they both appear to be females (so far anyways)....they are always trying to eat my fingers/fingernails---especially when my nails are painted any variation of pink....while it is not a death roll bite, it can be a little startling yet funny too...
