hello forum friends. Obviously were new here but i wanted to introduce Frank (reeves turtle) and myself, Stefanie. Im new at thia aquatic gig but as of now were doing good.
when my hubby bought Frank from petsmart (frankie was a vday gift ) the chick told him he was a longneck turtle. Ha!! He does have quite a long neck but im sure she just made that up!! She didnt tell him anything about heating lighting or even how much water he likes in his tank....bad bad person reppin for petsmart. Anyhow after having him in approx 2 in of water for a couple days it was obvious he wasnt happy. So thanks to the forum here accepting my member request, i was able to get him happy!!!! I will say i was unsure about this guy at first but he has such a great personality!!! When we got him he had a red patch on the underside of his front foot (please dont yell at me if its not a foot. I think of it as so) but as we got his diet lighting and temp right, it went away. Can someone tell me what that was? Im just curious is all.
