Hey turtle people! My hubby might let me get a mud turtle since I have an empty 20g long tank. (I have 6 total turtles as it is-just convincing him on letting me get another is a miracle)
I know muds are small guys, which species would be ok in a decked out 20g long? White Lips are somewhat easy to find around my area so I hoped one of them might do well.
I spoil my turtles with good food, what do muds go for?
There's the myth they don't need a UVB? True or false? I gotta new UVB to spare so he or she would get one no matter! And a basking lite.

I was thinking of permanently dividing my 20 long mostly water with a land area on one end to hang out to soak up the rays, what kind of substrate should be on that land side?

I'd like to know anything else about setting up a little mud, so if ya got the info I'd appreciate learning more on them!
