I had an iguana uv bulb but i gave it to the lady who gave me the turtle with my old iguana cage...for her ball python.

i hate walmart fish, especially the feeders...he ate 2 and the rest died, i never bothered getting more. i've just been feeding him pellet food. that guy was a moron anyway, telling us the algea was babies off the brazil sword plant. he also was telling us some idiot BS about snails. we didnt bother holding the fish up and looking stupid, we knew better.

i want to get rid of the turtle actually, but need to find him a good home. him and the pleco foul up the water too much...and the filter isnt cutting it. i have to take them out at least every other week, remove all 4 gallons worth of gravel, which makes the water so you cant see thru it...drain all the water and refill it. i'm thinking og getting an undergravel filter, and run a peice of tubing from the filter to under the UGF so it sucks the crud from under there. or preferrably....do the UGF with a submersible filter and pump so i can reduce the amount of gravel and water level so the setup is more turtle-friendly. right now i have it piled up w/ gravel and a rock propped agaist the side to climb on...and either the water so low it makes too much noise, or the water level is about 2 inches above the top of the rock. i'll get it worked out. so far theyr fine.

thanks
