Thanks for the reply. I still have them separated, but I couldn't really keep them this way for long, and I don't want to add another tank. There is a pond 10 blocks or so from my house and I see turtles sunning there like bananas every morning. What do you guys think of letting him go there? I've always tried to mirror natural environment, so he's accustomed to digging through muck for worms and stuff. I just don't like keeping animals I can't care for adequately, and I don't think I should keep him in an environment where he's getting hurt. I know people frown on releasing pets, but which is the worse evil here?
