Hey Bobby, i was in charge of husbandry at a small zoo here. Mata Mata turtles like it dark. Get some drift wood that enables it to crawl under in the water. I would also add some more water they have very long necks and will have no problems breathing. What ever falls from the trees such as leaves and twigs let them stay. The more cover the happier they are. They are pretty stationary in their settings. Small goldfish or shiners can be added so he can eat when ever he feels🎉 hungry. Nice looking turtle!
Rob my wife and I enjoy watching your channel here in Redding California. We get a good laugh from watching your youthful energy. We are in our early 60’s and wish we had some of your energy. There s something I need to say about your adventures into all the water ways where you catch fish. You are not tramping them in sewers, that would be deadly to your health. You are catching fish in the city STORM DRAIN systems that are built to take excess rain water back to the oceans. Unfortunately a lot of trash and debris ends up in these storm drains from people dumping their trash carelessly and rain water washing it into canals and finally the ocean. I appreciate you taking and interest in saving what you can of the environment and the aquatic life. Good work👍😎
Your dad's reaction made me laugh! Your mom should get the final say on the mata mata's name. Her reaction was priceless! Your parents already know it but they have an awesome son!
I cannot get over how chill he was with you! (except for when being quickly picked up haha) He was totally defensive with the other guy. What a fascinating turtle, that white pool you set up for him is absolutely beautiful too! Also... Justin Turtlelake 10/10
I'm Brazilian and if this turtle genuinely came from the Amazon forest and was not raised in captivity it's possible that it was illegally trafficked. In Brazil, the sale and possession of Mata-Mata turtles are illegal according to the Environmental Crimes Law (Law No. 9,605/1998), and the Brazilian Institute of Environment and Renewable Natural Resources (IBAMA) also regulates the possession and trade of native species. I highly recommend you guys to research where this fish store sourced this turtle!!! The sale and trade of Mata-Mata turtles for abroad can be legal in some cases, as long as all applicable laws and regulations are followed, both in the country of origin and the destination country. To legally export a Mata-Mata turtle as a pet, the exporter must obtain a CITES export permit from the country of origin and ensure that all local laws related to the possession and trade of wildlife are respected. In addition, the importer must ensure that the trade and possession of the turtle are legal in the destination country and, if necessary, obtain a CITES import permit or other relevant authorizations. You should ask the pet store for documentation regarding the origin of the Mata-Mata turtle and any required permits, such as CITES import permits or any other relevant authorizations.
Hey Bobbie how are you today? Minnows, platies, mollies, guppies, goldfish, and sunfish can all go in the tank for food. Matamata Turtles are lone-wolf types. They don’t like to mix with other creatures, so they shouldn’t be handled often. You don’t find them moving around that much either, which means that they aren’t the most energetic viewing companion. Although they aren’t cuddly or zestful, they are very easy to care for. If you wanted a low-maintenance pet, the Matamata would be a great friend. Their unique appearance also means that your lethargic buddy will still be very interesting to watch. (So if you did eventually get a female matamata turtle and they breeded they would have the eggs around October-December)
These guys don't "bask", similar to snapping turtles they are almost basking all day underwater as well camouflaged as they are and move really slowly,....except the head in kill mode lol. Since they stay shallow unless swimming in fear, UV and heat reaches them quite easily even though they are an almost fully aquatic species.
He is amazing but I beg you to buy some tongs and use them whenever you need to have your hands near him. Turtles can move like lightning especially when it comes to food and at this size your fingers are food ! I have to admit I have never seen anything like this !!!! We have big old snappers up here in Ontario Canada and I wouldn't put my hand anywhere near their head either ! To prove the point when I was little my Granddad let one bite the end of a shovel , walked around with it, put it back down at the edge of the pond and it never let go... then he told me to never go near the pond or in the water of the Beaver Pond because of the turtles ! Interesting animals though ♥🍁🍁🍁
The floating plants you had from a few vidoes back would be good for him to hide under! Just be careful as some of the floating plants grow crazy fast and will take over fast!
I wonder also, if Bobby would need to research the plants just to be sure they would not be toxic to the turtle since it does hail from the Amazon. One would think not, but best to err on the side of caution. But a great idea @kellywidmar62
@@AngieJames4172 the stuff he had the other day was what’s called water lettuce here! It’s invasive here but it’s not toxic that I’ve heard off! It’s the stuff he found the red shrimp in with the long roots.
Your mom is absolutely adorable, I love how supportive she is of you and how excited she gets. She's a good mama! And your dad's reaction was way too funny! Beautiful family, beautiful turtle!
Wow, just wow. I think I would have asked the age of the turtle. Lifespan is 15 years. Maybe longer in captivity. I would have asked, what else do they eat or like to eat. I'm sure you did all this though. It is definitely something to see for sure. Reminds me of the snapping turtles we've seen in your video's. A huge responsibility, you got this Bobby. Maybe a place for him to hide in or a cover of some sort. A turtle house.
Paul caffero has both of those turtles in his “turtle” pond.. they are cool, he actually has trouble with his eating live fish, says he eats at night only, he put guppies in there or just small fish for him to hunt and he won’t do it unless the lights are off.. lol and I know fly river turtles are pricey, last time I looked they were 14-1500
huh... your mom took that way better than i was expecting! lol. what a cool mom. she should get to name it though. A shame those other turtles were so expensive. they looked so silly and cute and i bet she would have loved them too. (someone slap together a turtle fundraiser for em! lol) Also i have seen a few other youtubers using those pools with the viewing panel in the sides and they are pretty cool. I would love to see you get one so you can show off some of the fish (and honestly some of the decorative terrain) that otherwise would be harder to see and appreciate from a top-down view!
Maybe get some more Water Hyacinth plants that you guys always see, when out catching fish? You know how important plants in your tanks and ponds are, for good water quality. Just a thought. Anyhow, that is one amazing turtle!!! Love the pond you put him in too. Nice and roomy for him, and I'm sure he'll love it! Thanks for the video!
Wow I saw this video and I was so happy because I love your fish catching and buying videos but I really love seeing you catch and buy turtles too because I love turtles so much. I love the name and him! Thank you for this content!
Hey Bobby l'm loving your Video, I'm so excited about every new one. The Matamata Turtle is just like a Dinosaur. But please don't forget about the other turtles like Dumpy please build them a solid basking platform, they really need it. Anyway love your Videos , keep you the great work🤩
I know predatory fins have fly river turtles for $500.00 before tax and shipping. And when I did my research after seeing paul cuffaros mata mata. I found that mata mata turtles rarely bite… so I’m confused
So you’re dad is where you get your reactions to things bumping into you then?? Love it 😂 The mana mana is awesome… you need to get one of those big river turtles for a buddy for him
That’s a good fish store you are purchasing at. Literally giving you a free food source that reproduces like crazy. It’s the little things that counts.
You can add temporary fish ( food source ) as Juvenile Mayan ciclids and other unwanted invasive fish that could benefit your turtle! Tilapias are becoming annoying as hell lately, feed it to your turtle lol
I LOVE your mom!! Her reaction to the turtle eas so greatWhat an awesome turtle! You're going to need to get him a big rock or tree branch to bask on. Some more plants around the sides would be good as well. I love Justin Turtle Lake 😂
His Mom was so awesome about it. He really should let it be her turtle but he gets the perks of it and takes care of it 🙃 because she is so awesome. (coming from another Mom )
He might want a dry spot to relax, I saw you had one in the corner, but its still a bit wet there., you might want a screen across the top too, to keep the pests out, & things from falling in.
I dont know if you know who paul cuffaro is, or if you watch his videos, but he lives in jupiter florida, and he has both a fly river turtle, as well as a mahta mahta. He also has a giant 6500 gallon pond with a giant viewing panel. Really awesome to see you are getting a mahta mahta🎉🎉🎉 so very cool!
Absolutely amazing turtle. You have a pretty cool mom bobby good to see your dad too. Super stoke to see your channel is doing absolutely amazing now keep up the good work
Wonder do they get poached or bred.. hope not poached You do a lot of rescue so I can’t complain 😂! You save a lot of fish from awful place and you take awesome care of them. If they were poached they are lucky to have you as a owner
Yeah, was excited till he mentioned they only come from the Amazon. Taking animals from their native habitat for amusement is kinda crappy. He is amazing though, the head shape is so cool! Those flyriver guys are like the puppies of the turtle world. They looked so fun!
cool addition. Please do take extra care of him which we know you will of course. The species is considered critically endangered and are wild caught for the pet trade.
I love turtles, I had painters and snappers growing up and they are a lot of fun. You can put some marbles in the pond for him to play with. He will keep you busy feeding him.
Some monstera plants would be a great addition, or water lillies...they will provide good shade, prevent sun damage to his shell, give coverage for the baitfish, and just make the pond look nice😊😊
Omg😳 Justin turtle lake is insane what a great addition to your collection bobby Abbie is looking so good love her to bits your mum and dad are so cool can’t wait for your next insane buy 😂🤣😂 ❤
There are better prices out there for fly river turtles. I saw one online from a reputable place for I want to say 4-6” for $450, $2000 is up there. They can get fungal infections on their carapace so they can be harder to keep. Apparently that turtle gets along with others so may be you can find another specie he can live with.
Hey bobby a reptile expert here. Mata-mata turtles are not deadly not even harmful people do die because of it but its because the people that died were so scared of it they drowned
He wouldn't mind more surface plants or a cave because mata-mata's like to hide. No fish is going to survive with him but some live bearers and feeder goldfish would bring some color.
Defo justin tutlelake ❤ hes awesome. Maybe a load of leaf litter to replicate hos environment. Hes definitely happier in your pond than the shop one, more like home ❤
Dude, that turtle is rad! Be interesting to see if there are actually any other creatures he would play well with. That pond looks really cool too. Awesome pick up! 👊
Well, there is the fly River Turtle he got on well with him, of course 8 grand is a LOT of cash, even almost 2 grand for a baby one is spendy right now. But I would be curious also. Maybe try an Eel or 2?
What an insane new addition to the backyard ponds! Comment below a name for him 🙌

I think that he should have brought the swimming turtle, but that's just me. Maybe his girlfriend will talk some sense into him.
@@joanlynch5271 $8k USD, that's a little too much for a turtle 🐢, he can get other fish with that money.
For real ! Finally someone cares 🙌 respect Wildlife
Florida says… hold my beer… 😅
Why is this so long???????
Hey Bobbie how are you today?
Minnows, platies, mollies, guppies, goldfish, and sunfish can all go in the tank for food.
Matamata Turtles are lone-wolf types. They don’t like to mix with other creatures, so they shouldn’t be handled often. You don’t find them moving around that much either, which means that they aren’t the most energetic viewing companion.

(So if you did eventually get a female matamata turtle and they breeded they would have the eggs around October-December)
He needs more basking rocks to climb up on and more leaf plants to hide! He’s amazing and definitely the best lookin one I’ve ever seen on RUclips!! ❤
they don’t do lots of baking
@@ridersaifmp20 oh gotchya
Still the pond itself if it’s gone be a turtle pond

Nah, the deadliest girl

He looks awesome, I definitely think more plants would be beneficial to him. And he’s gotta be the best Mother’s Day gift anyone could get. Great job

The first article I found on them says their average captive lifespan is over 30 years, sometimes 35.
You are Absolutely KILLING IT!!!!! Everything you do on Your Channel is TOP NOTCH!!!!
You have to go back for a Fly River baby 🥰
I bet they would have proper personality is interacted with throughout each day. So cute ❤😍
Paul Cuffaro has fish in with his large Mata Mata and Cornelius the bullfrog also shares that enclosure. I don't think they're as deadly as you think.
Bobby I loved my Mother’s Day surprise!!😂😂🐢🐢❤️❤️ Your fans always come up with great names, but I do love Justin Turtlelake ❤️❤️🐢🐢🐢
Thats a cool animal. Always loved the mata mata. Breaks my heart a little that the only way to get them is to take them from the river though. ❤
Awesome addition to the family, I would let mom name him because of mother's day of course :-) Great video! Thank you

Now that’s how a ninja turtle 🐢 should look like, so i would suggest Michelangelo the Matamata Turtle!
You should link up with paul cafarro. He has one and a massive indoor pond. Hes Also based out of your area.
One of the coolest turtles i have ever seen

Kamp Kennan and Paul cuffaro both have large Mata Mata turtles and theirs are not aggressive and Paul's lives with fish and doesn't eat them.

Paul Cuffaro has a mata mata. They are cool ! 😎
Well worth the $800. Great video Bobby!!✌️
Buy some albino arrowana's for your big monster pond!!
Back in the 90s could you could order them from petland discounts in the north East USA. They were a common sale.

Awesome! I think you should name him Kong! And you should definitely get one of those ponds with the window!!
Yoooo !!! 🐢 he’s so freaking cool .. I loved ur parents reactions they’re so supportive 🥹
Amazing turtle! This is yet another great upload! 👍
I don’t know if you know Paul but you should surprise him with a sturgeon
BROOOO THE INTRO IS CRAZY YOU SHOULD HAVE MORE SUBS THEN 1.73M SUBS BROOO
Since you have a turtle pond, I think you should put every turtle you find in there because then you would have a turtle army😊
paul cuffaro has one as well you should check with him
5:27 fresh water sea turtle😅
I love your videos, thank you for making them. They make us happier
Very cool. I think he needs some bigger rocks tho
Hes amazing money well spent buying him. Your parents are so cool.loved your dads reaction lol.
hey man, of course people are breeding mata mata in captive! here in Europe you can even find captive bred babies for about 150 euros...
He wouldn't mind more surface plants or a cave because mata-mata's like to hide. No fish is going to survive with him but some live bearers and feeder goldfish would bring some color.
Defo justin tutlelake ❤ hes awesome. Maybe a load of leaf litter to replicate hos environment. Hes definitely happier in your pond than the shop one, more like home ❤
The Fly River turtle was adorable! 🥰
Just curious.. how does the mata mata’s deadliness compare to an alligator snapping turtle?
Pretty sure Paul cuffaro has one of those turtles. Never miss video, watching from Australia.💖
Can't get enough of your videos!
Love the new vid😊 amazing fish and love the channel 😍
Love your videos keep up the good work😊
Dude, that turtle is rad! Be interesting to see if there are actually any other creatures he would play well with. That pond looks really cool too. Awesome pick up! 👊
