    I acquired my painted turtle from my SIL last year. She had her for 8 or 9 years. She was in a ten gallon tank. It was full of rocks and maybe 4 inches of water. No water heater. No heat lamp. No UVB. The tank was just in a window (which doesn’t allow UVB through). For EIGHT YEARS. I got her a 55gallon tank and a nice basking area with a heat lamp and a UVB lamp and guppies and ghost shrimp to chase. She grew at least an inch and a half in the first six months I had her. I want to get her a bigger tank when I can find one!
