Thx guys but I hv decided to return them. They were very active in beginning but now, they r just sleeping. I hv tried heater, introduced them to a 40 g tank but no progress. One of them i think has a broken shell so I hv returned them. They sometimes starts fighting but sometime they start to...
Uv rays has a regulator from which I can adjust light intensity but I don't know much about this
As I said, I hv 2 aquariums problem with another one is it is little flat so it is hard to attach uv light stand with it.
I also hv a reef tank(60 g) with low salinity(1.010). Can they stay there?
I got some photos. They r looking good today and r becoming active
I am using this uv light(uva+uvb lamp with stand)
Thx for help guys. There r no active forums for these guys like this one:)
Thx for help. I think it is uv rays coz they r behaving like this when I first introduced them uv rays :) . I'll also try to maintain a good distance between turtles and uv light.
Do u think I adjusted uv too close to them? They were sitting on the platform which pet shop gave me when uv was on. I was little confused. I'll try to run uv on low level from now. Thx for help. That pet shop didn't told me anything. He even didn't told me about uv lights. Just finding on net...
They also slept on ground yesterday when I bought them out of the water for about 50 min under the table and both r trying to find shadow in which they can hide. I hv not given them uv today
I hv bought them 5 days ago. I adjusted uv lights 2 days ago. My bigger one seems to be in trauma like thing. It is behaving weird. Since I hv started to give uv to them, they r behaving like that. Sorry can't get good photo of it's eyes but they seems to be clear, just watery
I am giving them uva+uvb light lamp for 2 hrs, diet is pellets,prawns, carrots and I also gave them cucumber. They got a bacterial infection few days ago but now they r ok.
I noticed that my pair indian roof turtles are becoming lazy. They both r following each other, becoming lazy and I noticed water coming out of the eyes of both of them(may be infection?). I give them uv rays for 3 hrs. They both r hiding under a chair. The biggest part is they r not fighting...
Is this shell rot? Can I put them in a reef tank(1.012 salinity) for few minutes for bath? Thinking of starting another thread as this one is getting too long
Sorry missed this one. I'll do what u guys told me :) . Thank u so much for great advice. I hv dry reef rocks so I may place them there when I get big tank.
How many hrs should they spend outside water. Today they spent 4-6 hrs outside the water
Thx. I never trust Pet store. These people always give wrong advise specially in india. That lfs told me that he used to have them in a small bath tub(he has 12-14). He also said me only to leave them on land for 1 hr but these r looking like curious little animals so I let them explore for few...
