What are the main differences for caring for a Greek and Russian? I have a Greek now and there is the slight outside chance of acquiring a Russian through a friend of a friend who knows someone who has a friend that no longer wants the Russian. I only just was asked if I want it, haven't seen it and know nothing of it's current health or care.
IF I were to consider it, what would it need that is different than Turtle? I currently have him in a 4' x 3' tort table, 10.0 UVB, 100 watt light that keeps his basking at around 95, coolest part of the table is around 75, warm hide, cool hide, water dish and the substrate is aspen (he ate the sand I had mixed in).
Again, I pretty much don't think I will end up with it but if I do I obviously want to care for it properly. I'm waiting for more info on it right now and *may* go look at it in the next few days.

Other than having a deeper substrate, I keep my Russians the same as most of my Greeks. :)
