I will be totally honest, I don't really know what I am doing with turtles. They were a gift to my kids but I have fallen in love with them and now I think one is sick. S/he is just laying on the bottom of the tank. They are in a 55 gallon, half full, temp is 75, filtration is great. The basking area is a bit small and I have been meaning to fix that, but usually the two of them bask together. S/he isn't eating but seems to be alert. S/he looks at me, follows my finger and moves her/his head.

Any suggestions are more that welcome and appreciated. I love these lil guys/girls and will do what I can to help them....
