abbeytheferret6 We have a 40 gal tank, about half full. It's not elaborate, but i has natural flat river rock cave and a recently added artificial tree root. We are going to get some substrate tomorrow after terp 2 arrives. There's currently 6 neons and a couple algae eaters in there. So far Atlas hasn't shown much interest in fish. The neons were a buck at petsmart with card. Philbert would have dispatched them with gusto and haste.

He is a pretty. A really nice little home for them----near the window gives it a natural feel to it.

It looks like I never posted about these dudes. Last spring a part time coworker was digging in his garden and found some trtle eggs. He happened to know I had turtles and asked what to do with them. I said I'd put them in a bucket and see what happens. Well, a few days later they hatched and he asked if I wanted some. I said sure, I'll take a couple. One year later...

Atlas and Titan are doing well and are bigger of course. The snappers are about their size and A & T won't get much bigger. We have the kiddie pool set up on the deck so hey can get some sun I'll try to get A& T pics soon.
