This is a 55 gallon, not 75 but it is nice and your turtle looks very happy

In another video I saw someone only open the output lever to fill the canister after they cleaned it and it fill the canister back. Perhaps that’s the reason for both levers on the manifold.

Do you know if there is a Fluval for a 40 galloon tank?

I love this idea, I just received my basking loft and will be modifying it. I have a question about the filter system you are using. Tank looks so clean!

Hi I have a 150 gallon tank that I bought used from a friend about 8 years ago. I resealed it at the time but have not since. How do I know if/when I should reseal

Ugh. Have a red eared slider I found in the road about a month ago. It’s an invasive species here. She had been hit but is ok. Just a little scraped up from being run over. Took her to the wildlife rescue and they checked her out. Told me I can’t release her. So I had an unused 75 gallon tank I setup for her. Used to be a fish guy but hadn’t in a while. Anyway just spent $50 on aquarium gravel this weekend. Now I found this. Didn’t see that anywhere else.

With my filter empty I figured I could pump the primer and I pumped for ten mins and got nothing. Filled the canister with water and pumped for thirty seconds and water was flowing. 😂🤣 wonder what the difference was.

Should make these to fit all size tanks or come with extenders or something.my tank is wider.

what size of this tubing, ID and OD ? I'm thinking to buy filter and to make it complete setup to but poop separator, but I need to know the tubing diameter. 12,16 or 20 ? Thank you

Do you still offer these?

Doing this for my Yellow Belly male as soon as i can afford it. It will be a 120gal aquarium doh.

im sorry i forgot i upgraded i have a 75 galln long

bro ur tank is a wide mine is a 40 gallon long what do i do and what filter are u using

The sand is the dumbest thing you could put in there. Good luck keeping it clean...

How do you clean the false grass? Or do you find it doesn’t need as much cleaning as the tank water?

I just acquired a rescued turtle from a seriously bad situation. Now watching you to learn as much as I can. I set up a turtle pond outside for him, but in the winter I will need to bring him in. When setting up the basking area, what type of bulb and wattage do you use? I see some people using two bulbs, and some using one. What’s the difference? Thanks!

I have a 300L (120*50*50cm or roughly 47*20*20 inches) aquarium with one HW704B but it struggles to keep the water clear so I just bought a HW3000, hope with these 2 combined water will be ok

Hello! i hope everything is well I know this is an older video but I still wanted to pop a question my basking loft does not fit on top of my 75 gallon tank do you think it came messed up? because it does not fit at all and I got my tank from petco and the thrive from PetSmart and it does not seem to fit on top any suggestions?

Can I do this set up but with an acrylic tank??

Thank you for a neat idea to build a turtle basking platform. Will I need a heat lamp and a uvb lamp a on top of the platform? Thank you.

Thank you so much for sharing all this precious info

There's no way to get your tank toppers over to us in Europe/Romania? Damn. I wanna give my turtle something nice, but they really don't sell this stuff over here. And iI can't DYI for shit..

i did the same thing to my turtle but in water jug and it drowned it self

Best turtle channel ever your the best!

How long will a turtle live in a burn barrel?

Hi Just wanted to let you know that wood cave That you have in your aquarium.That cave is not meant to be put in water like that.I know believe me I had one in my aquarium After three years I noticed there was slime all over the cave and my tank started getting foggy And the slime was all over my water.I took it out and I threw it away then I called Petsmart And told them what happened they told me that that cave is not meant to be put in aquarium with water it's only meant for Snakes geico Lizards That are in aquarium without water. Amazon has caves that it will be safe for our turtles and fishes.

Thanks! This is very useful to me! I am getting a little turtle named pickle!

I built a similar size basking platform for under $25 with some egg crate and zip ties, a small, very thin piece of plywood, and some sand.

you know if you shake weight the round circle thing from the gravel filter in the water it will start the siphon itself no sucking required? unless that's what you are into?

Great content my bro

Thank you for the tips, I was gifted a western painted belly about a month ago, he is doing fine in a10 gallon tank and he will be the only one I do not want to have 100 gallon tanks and turtles!! So far, I have learned that my squirtle can live his whole life comfortably in a 40 gallon tank! Please comment if this is wrong

Is it ok to use tile in the basking area?

Where did you get that topper ? I have a 150 gallon tank and need one

People really should consider Southern Painted turtles instead of Red Eared Sliders. They don't grow nearly as large, which allows people to provide them a better environment. A 75 gallon tank to a Southern Slider is like a 150 gallon tank to a Red Ear...

If the UV is placed along the input, wouldn't there be no bacteria to enter the filter and populate the bio media within?

for more than 300 is actually insane

So do hatchlings red ear sliders do go in deep water

I love how informative your video is. Do you recommend using silicone grease around the rings? Is it ok to keep the ceramic media on the bottom and the filter floss and charcoal on top? Thanks.

Do you make these for ppl?

What grass did you use

I have 25 tiger barbs, 3 rainbow sharks and a L340 Pleco. Have maybe last 10 barbs in 4 months?

Hello, I was hoping to ask if you are still selling you Basking Dock 5000?

Happy Harold! Very entertaining video!!

We just adopted a small red eared slider and working on the best tank setup. hes young, and we find he can't climb on the above tank basking platform. he is uncomfortable in deeper water that he can't stand up and get his head out. We have adjusted his environment and hoping with age he will do the above tank basking. Why 2 different filtration systems?

Hello sir can I elongate its Width?

I have a question, can you do a tank setup for softshell turtles?

I'm curious if you think having any of the charcoal or the little black balls or anything else is worth it? Or just all the ceramic media?
