Hey guys,

I just found a hatchling snapper by my turkey houses today. I think it was dropped by a bird. Anyways, he is the size of a quarter and still has his egg tooth.

I have a 10 and 20gal long tank. Which would be best to use? How warm/cold should the water be? Depth? Do I need substrate? What do I feed him?

Sorry for all the questions but it has been awhile for me and I have forgotten most everything.

Thanks.

Kelly
