Posted by: Shorty14788 at Thu Mar 9 07:58:03 2006 [ Report Abuse ] [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by Shorty14788 ] Please help! I recently got a florida soft shell who had been living in my brothers pond which had no fish or any kind of living animal other then mosquito larve. I'm not sure what he was eatting but he lived there for several months. We recently moved him to my 50 gallon tank which has a nice sandly section for him to bury in. (i didn't want to make the whole thing sand for fear of killing my filter.)His carpace is about 3 inches (when you add his neck he becomes much larger!)He is now living with 2 other turtles (a common musk -about 2 inches in length, and a florida cooter - about 3 1/2 inches in length)They all get along very well and like to hang onto each other. The soft shell (gilbert) wont eat! I have offered him reptomin pellets and dried shrimp, plants, live fish, live ghost shrimp, blood worms, beefheart, and snails. He doesn't even look at any of it.. i have had him since saturday and thought he probally needed time to adjust but today is wednesday and he still hasn't eaten. I am getting really worried and am wondering if it would be best to put him back in my brothers pond or if there is something else i cant offer him.
