Hello, everyone.
I know it's been a long time since I've been on here but I was thinking about getting a painted turtle for my now empty 80 gallon aquarium. Preferably eastern or southern painted as those are also "native" around here and I want to maintain a native tank. The only other thing I've considered adding a couple of bluegill from my outdoor pond.
I'm not in a big rush as it will be a little time before I will be set up and the shipping weather will be better.
I know everyone on here takes good care of their pets and knows what they are talking about, so i thought id come here and look first. I mainly am looking for a healthy sub-adult to young adult turtle.
I have reptile experience but not much turtle/tortoise experience in particular. That is why I am looking for something a little older as they will be a little more forgiving as I go through the learning curve.
If anyone wants to ask more questions I will be happy to answer them.
Thank you.
