Hi. I have taken on the responsibility of two RES that were just going to be let go ! I have read extensive the redearslider.com web site and checked out some others. I have a few pics here to what I have accomplished so far. The tank is 36 gal and i put about 8 gal of water in. Each one is 4" Randall and Little T. (they came with names lol). They seem to be happier, as they were in a red tub with no light and nothing to bask or come out of the water on.
My immediate questions would be:
1. How many filter(s) needed and what type? I have the Waterfall filter which has 2 carbon bio bags inside. Should I add a second underwater?
2. In feeding, is just placing the greens in the water is the way to do it? I have also added a few of the aquatic plants. And on feeder fish, they were being fed small gold fish. The last time was 2 weeks ago. The pet store says they are to little for the that???? hmmm...
Thanks for any help and suggestions greatly appreciated. I figured I would just be a 'foster parent'...until i got them home They're adorable.
****okay i have to figure out the pic, my camera's settings are off. Says too large to add.
I got it
