- Back at it again! Reacting to my subscribers' turtle tanks, lots of different turtle tank setup ideas here! There was quite a variation of turtles, but a lot of 40 gallon and 55 gallon tanks. The major takeaway? Add decorations đ

THANK YOU
I'm so glad! Thanks for sending it in!
yeah loved those
Whatâs up Tyler from California
I love this series. Thanks to you my turtle's tank is under construction :)đ
Awesome! Hope you're getting some inspiration!
I rescued my red eared slider from a busy parking lot. She was so unexpected so I wasnât prepared or educated on how to take care of a turtle. Iâm finally saving up money and planning to buy her a way bigger tank, lights, filter, and building her basking area! :) If you guys have any recommendations or suggestions on what to get her, that would be greatly appreciated.
@Yuvan Rayalla Thank you!! Iâm planning on using a crate thatâs pretty roomy, and adding some kind of padding so she wonât get stuck on the holes. I like the idea of a âon the topâ basking area. I wish you the best with your turtle as well! :)
I used egg crate to make my above tank basking area and my turtle and I both love the results
That is awesome I have a red ear slider to and I totally agree with Yuvan and I saved up for my female turtle rocky so good luck to you
:) so nice hop you have a good life with your turtle
At pet smart there are tanks that come with every thing you would need like the lights the filter and I think also the basking area too itâs around 40 or so gallons
đđ Wow, this octopus emoji is really cute!
isn't it? thanks for watching Camryn!
Thanks to you my turtle is nice and living. I have a red eared slider
glad to hear that Anneka!
Hope youâre still doing this when I have mine set up the way I want soon
Yeah I got a red ear slider not to long back I hope she will be doing this again to
Yesss, this series is back again!
Love your videos! One day Iâll have to learn how to do those external basking area. đ
thanks for watching.
Thank you so much. Iâm a new turtle owner and I honestly didnât know how much work goes into being one. My hatchlings Pepper and Mango thank you too.
I'm so glad it could help :) Best wishes to you, Pepper, and Mango!
This is like one of my favorite series and channels
Canât wait to upgrade mine for my two turtles đą!! So exciting to watch ur videos!
I love this series ! Some senders were also youtuber đ€© Xx
Love these types of videos
I have a hatchling and have been looking at so many of your videos to educate myself. Youâre very knowledge and inspiring. đ
Great Video, I like watching these to get ideas for my setups. Keep up the great work!
These videos are my favorites
Yay! I have been waiting for this video.
I absolutely love your channel. You have helped me with my turtle so many times. thank-you!!
Thanks for loving my comment.
I love the longer style videos they are so fun to watch đ
glad to hear that Sofia!
Really great video, very informative
Hi! Thank you so much for reviewing my setup from Finland, i was screaming when I saw it come up! I will definitely start adding more decor to the aquarium, thank you for your videos and love your channel! â€ïž
ah I'm so glad!!
Yeeees! I love these!
glad you're enjoying!
Great .. informative video I was thinking about to setup turtle tank.
Thanks so much for your review! Shelby and Raisin are doing well and Ill get something to fill in the middle a bit. Awesome videos and content as always!
thanks for sharing your tank with us!
I try putting things like drift wood and rocks in my reeves turtle tank but he always get stuck and it's to much stress đ even like just a piece of.wood he'll just push and push till he's lodged in there haha
14:12 that basking dock is đ„đ„đ„đ„
it is totally so cool!
I love turtles and wish to get one soon so thank you for all of the information đ
Great goldfish info
thanks :) appreciate you stopping by.
You have such a great energy đ
I love your videos, you have helped me so much since we got our turtle. đ
Happy to hear that!
Very knowledgably
The turtle & fish combo I believe really depends on the turtle , my turtles (musk & painted ) where keep together as hatchlings with a couple little fish and Iâve added more as they grew and the tank upgraded and they show no interest, which really surprises me especially with the painted and pleco
that's awesome! You're right, I do agree that it totally depends on the turtle and their personality.
Good series! The fact that you can keep making suggestions is proof positive that your input is needed.
Can't wait til I have petunia's tank in a state that is sharable! She's a rescue red-ear slider that i happened to be equipped to handle and your videos have been a great help đ
I'm glad to hear that Tim! Sometimes I feel as if I'm being a little too critical, especially when repeating the same things over and over, but it's all for the good of the turtle :)
Ur videos are awesome..it really help me to keep my turtle happy
Happy to hear that!
They look cool
Love the series it gives me tips for how to decorate my turtle tank and eventually I will submit my tank. đđđđđđđđđđđđđđđđđđđđđđđđđđđ
Thanks for watching Monique!
I had gold fish in mine for years even though my turtle wanted to eat them bc I gave them a huge space to stay where she couldn't swim in at all. It was an egg crate holding up the basking rocks.
Love your vidsđ
thank you!
@@TheTurtleGirl you're so welcome
Nice video im getting a turtle soon I have an aquarium room and can't wait.
That is great I have a red ear slider and you shouldnât use wood in it because it makes it foggy and my two filters couldnât handle it so if you want a clean tank donât use wood
Great video
Love the channel.
thank you so much!
When I setup my tank or rearrange I always keep in mind your thoughts. So thank you lol
haha that's awesome Alicia!
Love your videos!! đđđđđ
Just got a diamond back terrapin. They are so cool. I also have a musk turtle too.
Those are awesome species!
My neon tetras are doing great with my turtle! I have a 40 gal with 12 tetras and a baby turtle!
I didn't know half the things i did when i started with my turtles, when they were little, they had gravel as bottom substrate ...they ate a ton of it, and always pooped it without issues, luckily ...this was when they were up to 1-2 years old, they are now almost 9 years old and healthy, i of course changed the substrate to something much bigger they couldn't eat (river rocks) and moved them about 6 years ago to a much bigger tank, although i don't fill it full because i'm afraid of it breaking lol so it's sitting at 40 gal for 2 RES turtles ...i'm thinking of ways to put more decor to them but still unsure because of the swiming space. Still, thanks for all the tips and advice you put out there.
thanks for watching and for sharing :)
Hey, this is Kamill (from the first tank you reviewed today). Thank you for reviewing mine. I did get a slightly bigger basking area but I told my mom already that I am thinking about getting a bigger tank because (like you) I still feel like the tank is too small for the both of themâșïž. Thank you so much. And my African Sideneck is not that good of a swimmer so that is why the water is low even though the Red Eared slider has more webbed feet for swimming.
Oh cool! Thanks for sharing :)
@@TheTurtleGirl These turtles should not be in the same tank. as ASN and RES don't have the same needs. Please research them so you know what needs to be done so you can get the right stuff for each of them. there are some great groups on Facebook that have care sheets that might help you too.
@@jodisimpson7121 i did a lot of research prior to getting my turtles and from what i was informed, they have around the same needs and can be housed together.
Hi! Fish keeper fan from fish for thought, just wanted to say I dont have any turtles but you have definitely drawn my fascination towards them, I might get one one day. Thanks for the information videos
i love your videos
Nice Vid Turtle Girl
Thanks!
You Actually Replied!!!!!! (Maybe a shout out, Iâm a HUGE fan) either way I still love the videos!!!!!! đ€đ€
I love ur videos
Electric blue acara do great with my turtle and they are beautiful fish
The tank I have was made for turtles so I can't really made a external basking location because it's maxed water halfway
By the way I love your channle it helps me sooo much have a great day
i donât have turtles anymore but i love your channel !
Love you
Love your videos I just got a stink pot turtle and your videos really helped me. So thank you! But could you do a video on plastic plant quality because Iâd really like to fill out my tank.
Suggestion noted :)
I'm happy I found your channel before buying a turtle!
Yes.
đđœ
I keep Cory catfish in my tank. They are definitely keeping my tank clean and my turtle doesnât bother them.
The freesea wavemaker might be a better choice as it uses a magnet instead of a suction cup
ooh, thanks for the recommendation, might have to look into that!
đ more decor!!!!!
haha it's the way to go! Thanks for watching!
I finally got that turtle topper. :)
nice!
Suomi mainittu!!đ«đź
love your videos and petsđ„°
also:đ
thanks for watching!
Omg its ttr!(turtle tank review)
turtle đđœtank đđœreview đđœ
Tiger barbs are good tank mates.
My 2 sliders and mud have just moved into a 200g pond!
that's awesome!!!
Love this series....đone question... Is Aquarium Sand good for Hatching Turtles....? đ
Yes, I think sand is ok for hatchlings. Thanks for watching!
Have a great day
You too!
I have dianoes, gouramis rosie barbs and an awesome pleco happily living with my RES- Nosey and YBS-Trouble.
Where did you get the drift wood in your tank? I really like it :)
đđ I really wanna send in my 180gal one now but I don't know where you submit it too!! It has my RES girl Lola, a sump filter and a canister filter with tons of decorations and even schools of both Tiger Barbs and Ember Tetra. As well as 2 Convict Cichlid and 2 goldfish. Although I know what you said about the goldfish I didn't know that when I got them 3 years ago and they've been the 2 survivors out of 20 back when they were in a 90gal
sounds like some cool setups! I'll be opening up submissions soon :)
@@TheTurtleGirl yay!!!!
đ Tito's tank is my favorite!
definitely a beautiful setup!
@23levi tran thanks! I thought I heard Tito đ

OMG my favorite CZcamsr
awhhhh thanks!
Thank you so much
I watched some of your videos and it was useful to my new turtles! Thanks you so much and btw I made a parody of your video
I'm glad it could help!
Hey ! I would like to ask if a 55 gallon tank with a large no water area on top of the tank ( with basking lights ) with no filter ( I do regular water changes every 2 days ,I also feed my turtles in a different tank during feeding time cause they are messy eaters ) is an OK environment for two male southern painted turtles . Thank You !
I got catfish in my tank feeding two snappers with gold fish and feeder fish
Im a turtle lover and in my neighborhood there was a abondond house in The winter with a turtle out side in a thank with mĂČ water food are protection he was a red-eared slider turtle
Did you rescue it
@@lwheeler9374 yes
Good, I have a red eared slider too
My red eared slider has lived with a mountain minnow for a few months
Can I use tap water for set up or do I need conditioner?
đ love these videos. Maybe I should submit my tank setup đ€
glad you enjoy them!
The Turtle Girl looks like she would be so fun to FaceTime lmao
What substrate would be best for a map turtle?
Hi, I am planning to get a red eared slider and was watching your videos. They really helped me in convincing my parents and getting all the supplies for it. Once I get it am planning to name is squirtle (from Pokémon), or Oogway from Kung Fu Panda. Also, I have been wondering that if decretive rocks will be good as substrate. By decretive rocks I mean like the ones you might see outside by a tree or like under a porch.
You can use rocks, from outside, but just make sure you sanitize!
Ok thanks!
Hi omg I really love this series! I have a 2 yr old red eared slider that I gave a tank update recently and your videos really helped me. â€ïžare you Filipino? Greetings from Manila!
I'm glad to hear that! Yes, I'm filipina!
Hey miss, what LIVE plants do you recommend for semi aquatic turtles?
do you recomend having plants in my spotted turtle tank
i think plants are great and can make a habitat more naturalistic!
Where did you get your led strip clip from?
I dont have the light for my turtle is it bad?
I cant help but notice how your turtle immediatly went to your hand when you touched the tank đđ
Where can you submit your tank setups
So I have my UVB lights about 3-4 inches away from the basking area, itâs that okay?
I need that metal latter used in the tank at 14 minutes-ish. Anyone able to point me in the right direction where I could buy one?
I have a 45g tank what can I add to it I wanted to get another turtle also for my painted turtle skittles
I requested a red ear slider that was on the side of the road and it has a basking spot now ;0
*rescued
Love this channel
Can you make more snake vids pls
thanks for the suggestion, Luke!
Hi can you please link a cheap affordable heater for a red eared turtle
Do we need a filter or could we just change the water and once and then?
filters are not optional imo, might do a video on this :)
Can you keep adult goldfish with adult yellow bellied slider? Of course lots of space...
