Excellent step by step! All you beginners out there take note and do it right from the start like he does here, and your turtles will be as happy as you are with the results. Thanks!! Stay Safe!!
belizeguy bro I never say anything but you comment on like every turtle video I have watched! You must love turtles. You also must have watched every video on RUclips about turtles. I mean I see your comments on almost all turtle videos 😂..
@@williamlewis3163 I have been keeping Turtles and Tortoises for 61 years now. (I'm 66 and my first was at 5 years old!) I sure have been lucky to have so many different types over the years, and now that I am retired, I'm still having fun with a reduced collection down here in Rural Mexico. Turtles and Education about them are very important to me. I sure do watch my fair share of RUclips videos! Be Well!
belizeguy I hope my life can be as yours is with turtles and tortoises. I’m just about to turn 20. I’ve had turtles since I was about 5 also! Mainly North American box turtles that is. I want a Mexican box turtle so bad they remind me of a three toed.
@@williamlewis3163 Well, that is a good start! Those ones over in Veracruz are amazingly colored. I have never been lucky enough to have one as the local laws are pretty strict. The one I would love to work with is the Rhinoclemmys rubida rubida or Yellow Spotted Wood Turtle. They are so pretty. I have been lucky enough to buy 3 Red Foots, a Sulcata, Florida Soft Shells, Map turtles, and Yellow Spotted Side Necks. All with permits so they are legal for me to have. Point me at an email address for you and I will send pictures.
Dude I remember I used to watch you all the time when I was like 9, im 14 now. Im coming back to your channel because of my interest of marine biology and I need to see what I can do for a good turtle setup
Blue Line Morphs That awesome! My story is actually the opposite. I loved snakes when I was very little which introduced me to turtles. And the rest is history! Also, thank you for your service as a Police Officer!
My son's pet turtle got it's head stuck in the intake of a filter a few years ago he was devastated, something to keep in mind also while setting one up
I know this video is like 3 years old but here's a tip for those floating docks- remove the bracket and tie string to each hole and tie off to something outside the tank. I had a heavy metal basket upside down on my tank, the dock tied to it with plastic strings, and the lights set on top. I'll never use the lights at an angle, again. Zero angle. Straight up and down only. One exploded bulb is enough.
Hey, when I bought stuff for my turtle a few years ago they told me that I shouldn't put plants in the tank because they could eat it and it could be poisonous.Which plants are you using? Or doesn't it really matter that they eat the plants?
Do you knot need a heater for the temperature Of the water or does not have to have one. I always Thought you had to maintain water at a Sertian temperature.
So do you not need a tank heater then? Is this because the lights are sufficient? I’m trying to upgrade my turtle to a large tank and I’m unsure about the tank heater… any advice would be much appreciated! :)
I have 2 turts that I have had since they were hatchlings. One is red belly and I thought the other was a yellow belly. However now I am not sure. The yellow one has an under bite that has just appeared with in the past two weeks. I am not sure if it is effecting in a negative way. She still eats but it looks like where her top runs the bottom she had developed a black spot. Can you give an insight on what I need to do ?
well, if it has a red dot behind it's ear, it's a red eared slider. Yellow bellies just have the yellow lines. Since you're saying the under bite is something that just started to present itself, it sorta sounds like it might be MBD (metabolic bone disease). This happens when reptiles have vitamin deficiencies, particularly calcium. Almost always it's due to lack of UVB lighting (bc they can't absorb calcium w/o it). Sometimes, the deficiency is due to their diet and not the lighting- which is why most reptiles diets require supplements in order to meet their needs nutritionally. When reptiles don't get enough calcium (or can't absorb the calcium they do get), their bones and shells become weak, they'll start to bend and bow. They'll develop odd lumps and bumps, warped appearances, and under/over bites like you mentioned, too. Now me personally? I've never had turtles before- the reason that I'm watching videos about them now is bc earlier tonite, I learned that one of my son's friends has a turtle after hearing her talk about it. I heard the little girl that owns the turtle say that they only need to eat every 3 MONTHS (and that the poor thing is living in a one gallon fish bowl practically) so naturally, that got my attention!! Now I'm here, doing as much research as possible tonite so that I can run out and get everything that poor turtle needs tomorrow, so when she comes home from school, her and I can talk about proper turtle husbandry and get that poor turtle out of the hell it's living in). So, I'm not currently sure how turtles are supplemented calcium just yet- aside from mention of turtle bones/cuttle bones. We have bearded dragons and use a calcium dust on their insects. What kind of lighting do you have? I've learned so far that turtles have almost the same requirements as bearded dragons for the type of lights- a UVB light and one for basking/heat that both are supposed to be on top of their little basking dock thing. Another video said that she uses a reptisun 5.0 tube light. Those lights are kinda expensive, but you can save money by getting an under the cabinet light from the hardware store (just make sure it takes florescent bulbs and not an LED). Depending on your tank size, a 12-18" light would prob be more than enough. Then just switch the bulb with a special UVB bulb of the same length (Chewy or Amazon are almost always the cheapest imo). You'll have to kinda research it and see what will work for you. You'll also have to see how close the light needs to be to the turtle, in order for them to actually be in range enough to get the UVB. It's gotta be pretty close, I think. Or at least it does with bearded dragons.. no more than 6" or so away from them, but I'm not sure with turtles.. I imagine it's about the same tho. I know from experience that you'll really notice how much of a difference it makes after you start giving them the UVB that they need. it's almost like they turn into a completely different animal - their colors will become more vibrant and they'll have so much more energy. It really made me feel pretty terrible about not giving them the UVB light that they needed after seeing how different they acted.. but I was really glad to have finally provided it after I learned.. The way I see it is there's no sense in beating yourself up about things I didn't know about (granted I should have researched and I should have known all of my pets proper care requirements beforehand but once again - you live and you learn and you try to do better). bc that's all we CAN do, yk? And now, now that we know better, we do better. this is not ideal, but I will say that in a pinch - you can bring them outside and allow them to soak in the sun for a little bit if you aren't able to immediately provide UVB lighting. There can't be glass or screen on top of them (both in sunlight AND with the tank lighting) bc UVB can't travel thru glass and the screen blocks it (unless it's very wide). And naturally- your pet would need to be supervised CLOSELY while they're out there- bc the threats are literally at all angles when they're outdoors - the heat, bugs, even hawks and other birds, poisonous plants, not to mention cuts, abrasions and falls from whatever is out there. And prob the most obvious- these lil suckers will try to make a break for it and run away or hide somewhere- it absolutely WILL happen. Don't think that it won't- bc it's the worst feeling ever when you take your eyes off of them for a second and then they're gone. You don't realize all the places that they can hide until it happens, so don't risk it. And don't leave them out there in a cage or enclosure by themselves for more than a couple of minutes bc that sun gets hot and it heats things up quickly and I've heard some real horror stories about people leaving their pets outside for short periods of time and coming back to them dead from overheating in the sun or drowning after their tank filled up with rain, etc etc. Again, this is not ideal but it's def better than nothing when you're in a pinch. It's better than nothing, basically. anyway, I'm sorry for this being so long-winded and not specifically about turtles.. if anything, I hope it at least gets you pointed in the right direction so you can figure out what's going on with your little baby. I hope I didn't over step or come off as being too presumptuous and/or condensending- it definitely was not my intention! Anyway.. hope this helps! Take care and best of luck to you guys!
You only really need a water heater if the room you keep them in is always cold or during the winter. Usually, normal room temperature keeps water at the right temperatures. But always use a thermometer and measure your temperatures just to be sure.
I know this was posted a long time ago but if you know, do river cooters need heat lamps? I got one from my uncle that he’s had for 17+ years and I just want to make sure he’s ok and happy 😚
My female RES turtle is 5 inches, and my tank is a 75 gallon, with a zoo med desert UVB and heat lighting kit with a mini combo deep dome dual lamp fixture a 75 watts reptile basking spot lamp bulb and a 13 watt 5.0 UVB reptisun, an eheim professional 4+ canister filter. Can it be possible to put a baby RES or any type of turtle along with it. I used to have a smaller male turtle, who is a baby living alongside with mine and they got along just fine, until he died
What would you do if the red-eared slider is bigger? I have acquired a bigger turtle who was found crossing the road in 107°. 😣 I have it currently in an outdoor kiddie pool with filtered water around 80°. I dump the pool out 2x a day. I have a ramp so it can get out and bask. It is in my fenced in front yard. It seems to be very happy. It hates tanks. I am fine for the next 3-4 summer months but then what?? Also how do I know if it is male or female? Thanks.
Ok so when winter comes around turtles hibernate also to tell the gender look at its tail is the tail really long or is it short and thin thinner means female and vice versa I would recommend put it in a local pond to live out it’s life
The first time my friend put fake greenery in his adult male red eared slider's tank the turtle pulled them all out and ate a bunch of the fake leaves. Not good
Your not sposted to use clip on lights because what happens if you bump them and they fall in you would eletcute your turtle of your fish but you did everything else right great job
They only really need it if the room you keep them in is constantly cold or during the winter. Usually normal room temperature is the normal water temperature.
I have been repeatedly told to never put fake, plastic, aquatic plants in my turtle tank because "grass turtles" love to eat weed. According to those who know more than I, they eventually end up eating plastic, which clogs their digestive system. Please lay my fears forever to rest, if you will.............. And please bear in mind, I have six baby Peninsular (Florida) Cooters at stake here, whose fate is lies within your advice...........
Turtles instantly butt their heads trying to get out, I think that's a fail. It's a non-starter, way too small and plastic plants are of zero interest to animals.
K Vander Velde They are barn cats... the rain doesn’t bother them at all. They also have an entire three car garage they can go into at any time day or night. They do what they want.
@@tatumsajerkk No, scientifically amphibian means they live part of their lives in water. Meaning at one point they actually have gills to breathe under water. For example, frogs and salamanders are born in water and live their young lives 100% in water as tadpoles until they mature and develop lungs to live on land. While turtles do live in water that does not make them amphibians as they are still born on land and lay on land and have to come up for air. They are reptiles that live on water. Crocodiles and Alligators are also reptiles that live in water, it does not make them an Amphibian species.
@@tatumsajerkk No, you dont understand. In that case Dolphins and whales are fish but they're not because they breath air and give live birth. Yes turtles do live in water, by definition the word amphibian means live on water and land. BUT when it comes to the SCIENTIFIC classification of the species, they belong to the order Reptilia NOT Amphibia. More specifically Reptila Chelonian. You can go to your local pool or beach and swim everyday, that does not make you a fish. As long as you dont have gills to breath underwater, you're still a mammal.

Amazing setup! Where do you get this plastic plants?😃
Amazing vid keep up the good work
Even with the 100gallon filter, how often do you need to clean out/do water changes?
Great video
What type of sand would you recommend for a res? Thank you for your video :)
So my question for you is... What wattage of bulb and how far away for the UV and heat lamp...?
The cat tho🤣
That cat wanted to get in 🤣
With the sand, do you have to worry about gas pockets like you do with fish?
Shelled Reptiles i have two questions for. where do you recommend getting turtles and what is the minimize tank size for pink belly snappers?
BBF the minimum size would probably be anywhere form 75-100 gallons
Go to reptile conventions they normally have healthy baby turtles just look up which one is closest for you
@@VincentsReptiles i would reccomend 90 gal tho
Great vid, love all the vids
Did u add the safe guard drops
When its time to clean it out, what do you do with the sand?
Hi how did you install the filter? Do you add water to it
I have a 75 gallon with a female red eared slider and a female African sideneck
I saw your comment I also have a 75 gal but I have a yellow belly will this be a big enough tank once it’s full grown

Of the water or does not have to have one. I always
Thought you had to maintain water at a Sertian temperature.
What filter u used?
Hi! Can you tell us what the dimensions of this tank are? Thank you, great video!
I’m pretty sure it’s a 75 gal meaning it’s 48in long and 14 wide long not sure how tall though
It's far too small for a living animal
What size tank is that?
How do u clean it with the sand?
Hi, do you put your turtles in a separate container when eating?
i rewatch this video many times for the cat @12:36
So do you not need a tank heater then? Is this because the lights are sufficient? I’m trying to upgrade my turtle to a large tank and I’m unsure about the tank heater… any advice would be much appreciated! :)
It depends on time of year and how big your tank is. I do recommend a tank heater, all mine currently have them due to it being winter time.

How do you clean an aquarium that has sand? I ask because I have a turtle and only put river rocks because it's easier to clean lol
would you suggest a internal submersible heater for red eared sliders? or just the heating lamps?
You only really need a water heater if the room you keep them in is always cold or during the winter. Usually, normal room temperature keeps water at the right temperatures. But always use a thermometer and measure your temperatures just to be sure.
I have tiny gravel which I have a live aquarium "grass" carpet on top. Would this be safe for my future turtle? Thank you!
I know this was posted a long time ago but if you know, do river cooters need heat lamps? I got one from my uncle that he’s had for 17+ years and I just want to make sure he’s ok and happy 😚
All turtles need heat lamps-they need both UVB and heat lighting.
How often do you clean it? & how
I've read in forums where some say you should cycle the tank first and others say you don't need to with turtles. What do you think?
I have never cycled a tank for turtles, never had a problem.
So the lights have to stay on 24/7 or off at night
I think off at night
what about a snapping turtle?
My female RES turtle is 5 inches, and my tank is a 75 gallon, with a zoo med desert UVB and heat lighting kit with a mini combo deep dome dual lamp fixture a 75 watts reptile basking spot lamp bulb and a 13 watt 5.0 UVB reptisun, an eheim professional 4+ canister filter. Can it be possible to put a baby RES or any type of turtle along with it. I used to have a smaller male turtle, who is a baby living alongside with mine and they got along just fine, until he died
That took a turn
LET THE CAT IN!!!!!!!!!!
What would you do if the red-eared slider is bigger? I have acquired a bigger turtle who was found crossing the road in 107°. 😣 I have it currently in an outdoor kiddie pool with filtered water around 80°. I dump the pool out 2x a day. I have a ramp so it can get out and bask. It is in my fenced in front yard. It seems to be very happy. It hates tanks. I am fine for the next 3-4 summer months but then what?? Also how do I know if it is male or female? Thanks.
Ok so when winter comes around turtles hibernate also to tell the gender look at its tail is the tail really long or is it short and thin thinner means female and vice versa I would recommend put it in a local pond to live out it’s life
What size tank now?
How do you keep it so clean? Like I struggle to keep mine clean.
An oversized filter
Cats like hiiiiiy like the video pwease
Lol I saw the snow outside
The cat is so funny
How do you clean it
How big is each turtle?
Would a tank like this be good for a common snapping turtle?
Ctrybpkm Gaming not for his full life but as a baby yes when he gets bigger ur going to wanna go with something much bigger
Do You really need a lamp for the basket place?
Yes, they need their UVA and UVB for vitamin d.
What about gravel
What is size of this tank?
Right..
55 gallon
I want to get a turtle, but can you tell me if having those lights on all day can become expensive? Just wondering.
They should be on during the day and off during the night
If you think just the lights will be expensive then I wouldn't recommend you get this pet
Are your box turtles tanks bioactive

Set up set up
The first time my friend put fake greenery in his adult male red eared slider's tank the turtle pulled them all out and ate a bunch of the fake leaves.

Lol I see you added
How much weight in sand would you say you put in the tank?
Your not sposted to use clip on lights because what happens if you bump them and they fall in you would eletcute your turtle of your fish but you did everything else right great job

wheres the heat stick?? turtles only eat if they're warm enough so they need heat as well.
They only really need it if the room you keep them in is constantly cold or during the winter. Usually normal room temperature is the normal water temperature.
