I never want to be critical, but so many people send in questions on ID of a found turtle , habitat ,outdoor care etc. without a clue as to where in the world they live. If you live in Florida, this would be a great habitat because the FL softshell lives in quiet water habitats. The spiny softshells of the northern and central states tend to favor moving water with a sand bottom, although they are found in large lakes in some instances.
