Hi everyone, my coworker was re-homing a teeny tiny mud turtle and I decided to bring him in! He is roughly the size of a quarter and extremely adorable. I am hoping someone can provide me some insight as to exactly what species he is so I can make sure temps and setup are perfectly suited for him. Pics attached!
Right now he is being kept in a filtered 10 gallon aquarium with lots of plants and hides for him to explore, and only a few inches of water. He has an 18 inch t8 10.0 UV tube and a 30 watt flood basking bulb. Being fed zoomed hatchling formula. Please let me know if there is anything else I should be aware of as far as their care.
