Description

I'm looking for a new home for an aquatic turtle. The turtle is calm, accustomed to regular feeding and clean water, active in warmer areas, and tolerates aquaterrarium maintenance well. I'm giving it away for free, but I have strict requirements: a proper aquaterrarium, a UV lamp, heating, and filtration. If you've never kept turtles before, I can offer basic care and a list of essentials. Please write with a brief description of the conditions (volume, lamps, filter) so I know the turtle will be in good hands.
