Hello everyone, I have a few questions, but just a upbrief. Today a friend of mine brought me her turtle that she had for a total of two weeks. She said she didnt want to spend the high amount of money to keep it. So I took it. It is about an 1" and right now I have it qaurantined right now in a tuperware container. How long should it be quarantined? Would I introduce it to Oregano little at a time (hour a day one week, 2 hours a day the next week, 3 hours a day the next week and so on)? Also I dont have a filter yet for the tuperware container but I was thinking about just a small one for right now from Walmart. Is that ok? Thank you everyone and God Bless.

how big is oregano and how long have you had him? if he's about the same size and you haven't had him for *too* long i'd say you're pretty safe. just my opinion thouhg.
