when u feed them, feed them in a quarantine thing. u could use anything, a rubber maid or an extra tank or the bathtub, whatever. it helps with food decaying. and invest in a good filter!! it really does keep the water cleaner. and do frequent water changes.

i used to have a problem with that smell, too. it smelled so gross.. i live in an apartment and could smell that turtley smell as soon as i walked in. . ick. but having a filter and feeding the turtle in a quarantine thing does help.
