will someone look there at the pics of my turts and see if you think they are pyramiding or look normal? and if they are, how bad do you think it is? i just refixed their diet to include more veggies and less reptomin (only as a treat now, poor little guys, they did so enjoy it! lol)

the pyramiding on your turtles dont look too bad. but i have a question... why does the one turtle look so DARK compared to the other one??? my turtles shells are both turning brown, but the shell on your one turtle looks BLACK. is it a different kind of RES or something??? also, whenever you let your turtles go in the grass, do they stay near each other? because i know whenever i put mine down in the gress together, they run in opposite directions. i got them a small animal play pen to stay in whenever i am just placing them in the grass for a bit. also, and i prmise this is the last question! *haha* anyone out there who has a baby pool for their turtles, do you just fill it up once and then let the turtles swim in it over and over again??? doesnt the water get brown.... do you have to change the water every few days or do you just leave the same water in it??? just wondering because i was planning on getting a baby pool for my turtles!! ok, well thanks in advance for any answers....

Yes, they have a bit of pyramiding, it is good that you changed their diet. They do look nice and healthy otherwise. My RES have very dark shells too, I think that is just what happens as they age. I like your tank setup.
