Hello.
Today i got visited by a friend and wile he was watching my recently acquired tortoise eating, he told me about a guy who keeps his turtle in aquarium maybe double his size and not caring in general. And hes willing to give it away. After given some thought I found a place for him in my apartment - to build an aquarium above the couch. If i have a tortoise, why wouldnt i have a turtle also, right? And my daughter as most of the kids loves animals.
I would appreciate some help with planning this little project. As for starters species, did i get it right? If not who is he/she? The length of carapace is 6-7,5 inches. This is only picture i have.
How big should aquarium/enclosure be for adult one (size and dimensions)? How much space it needs between water and top of aquarium? After getting these questions solved i could start planning the expenses, etc.
What should i put in the aquarium and what should be avoided?
His health condition. Hes kept in a small tank with no land and possibly no UV light. Thats all i know for now. Is there anything i need to prepare before i get him?
For now thats it from my side, ill really appreciate all the help i can get on this matter. Thank you in advance for answers. So its not all sad im adding a picture of my my daughter misting a tortoise.
