  • Hey guys, on this installment of Parker's Swamp, I bring you through the process of how I tried to copy Tanner Serpa's design for a paludarium. It turned out different than I planned but I actually like it way better for my baby Blanding's turtles.
    Check out Tanner's video here to learn from the master: • Building The Pixie Fro...

    I think you did a great job. All of us aquarium, terrarium and paludarium makers strive to be like SerpaDesign, don't we? LOL

    This was awesome! I just got a Chicken Turtle recently, and I really wanted to give the little dude a wonderful enclosure! I'm ordering a lot of this stuff now.

    They’re soooooo cute. This might be like the third or fourth time I’m watching this video lol. I really like it because you make it seem very doable.

    After applying the silicone, spray with water (windew is best, but idk how long the chemicals last on the glass. After spraying, wipe away with your finger. The silicone wont adhere to wet surfaces, making it much easier to wipe away the excess! Great build!

    You just reminded me of my first time trying to build stuff in my tank with sillicone. It looks almost as bad as what I did lol!
    Really cool tank!

    Interesting and informative. I am considering starting a turtle 🐢 tank. I like the small turtles. I would also add guppies to this tank. I’m just not sure yet because I’m learning the basics. I was going to do African dwarf frogs but after a bit of research I changed my mind. Thanks

    I rescued a blandings turtle once. It was stuck under a dam and was looking to lay her eggs but was very lethargic and couldn't make it up the huge boulders. I think it may have been someone's pet (illegal where I live) because I gave her some of my bait (nightcrawlers) and she ate them with me a half foot from her. I moved her down river to a nice bay off the river at a family friends house and was told she kept coming back to the same dock for the carp food.

    Hey ! Lindsey from Illinois here ! I really want to use botanicals and more plants my musk turtles love them but I struggle with cleaning the tank…
    How do you clean the tank or do you just depend on the filtration and water changes?

      Is it a red ear?

  • @withurshield931
    @withurshield931 Před rokem +1

    Question: do you have to occasionally manually clean the tank? Also, how often to you replace water that evaporates?

    • @ParkersSwamp
      @ParkersSwamp  Před rokem

      Yeah I change the water about 10% every couple of weeks

  • @bunniegrrrl8334
    @bunniegrrrl8334 Před rokem +3

    this is a great setup !!! but i wouldnt recommend cleaning tanks with clorox. any chemicals or soap can kill off the good bacteria and ruin a good tank. white vinegar and water is the best way to clean aquatic tanks. i hope your turtles are doing well:)
