Large Turtle Tank

Turtle loves it

We bought this for our baby musk turtle, which is about the size of a quarter currently. It works perfectly for him with about 3 gallons of water added. I used distilled water to make sure there was no chlorine. It is easy to clean with the lift away tray design. The filter seems to be sufficient. I like the fact that I can put the heating element (which you ABSOLUTELY need for a turtle!) and the thermometer in the bottom try with the cords coming out the side, so those are hidden and do not detract from the natural environment.

I got the biggest size for my turtle and it’s perfect size for her. One thing I did not realize is it doesn’t come with the heat lamp or bulb so you will have to buy it separately. Sadly so it also doesn't come with instructions either. It is easy to assemble. On each side of the “walls” you have to peel off the film that protects the plastic for a more clear finish.

It came really well packaged but has a crack. I already disposed of my other tank so I have to make it work, but I’m disappointed that it’s damaged from the start. I’ve used this tank before, and it’s been great when it isn’t damaged.

I read the reviews and like others, mine didn’t come with a light, but that’s fine since I’m using my own light source. There was no damage to the enclosure and everything is as should be. I got the XL. Out of the box, I got this setup for a hatchling Chinese Box Turtle which is a terrestrial turtle for the most part but is more aquatic in hatchling stages. Good water area and useable land area. What I did: I knew I had to do somebody things to make this t the right setup. I cut the sponge for the pump in half and got carbon media to help with filtration. I also added an aerator. I added a background to the walls and added some live plants (spider plant and moss) for natural humidity. I have plexiglass covers to seal in the humidity and hole for the basking lamp. This setup is not a great setup for fully aquatic turtles and definitely nothing more than a hatchling. But for my needs it works great. It is temporary for maybe 1 year, but by no means should a subadult or adult turtle be housed in this for their permanent enclosure. So great for specific needs but not great for a long term housing solution for any turtle.

It looks nice and somewhat easy to clean. Definitely not worth the price for a couple of reasons 1- The pump doesnt filter anything. Its just a bubbler basically. 2- The photos are misleading. It DOES NOT come with a lamp. So by the time you get lamp, you might as well just get an aquarium, filter and pump separately, it will be cheaper and have better quality environment for your turtle.

First off I want you to keep in mind that it is a turtle tank. The water does get dirty. However with the baby turtle that is using it now I can go up to 9 days without out cleanup. I try to clean it once a week but sometimes life happens. A shop vac is a big help when draining the water. If cleaning times are longer than a week water might need to be added. DON NOT JUST POUR THE WATER IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TANK. Pour water slowly over the steps. This keeps the dirt underneath from getting stirred up. Also I’m in Florida so if I need a small heater then I’ll guess a small $5 warming device is needed.

States on page should come with a light but it did not, also came with the smallest amount of gravel that the package broke on and was all over the inside of the box.

DO NOT BUY THIS OVERPRICED RUBBISH. The pictures online look like this would be an amazing habitat for a turtle. It is anything but! The depth of the water is only an inch or so, and the product quality is extremely poor. The pump did not work on arrival, all instructions are very poor translations, all product marking are in Chinese and the product is overall made from very cheap plastic. If this was a cheap $5 item you could accept it for what it is, however at the price paid it is a total and utter scam.

Sağlam bir şekilde ekime ulaştı. Ürün kaliteli ve güzel. XL boyutunu aldım. Kaplumbağalar sere serpe dolaşabiliyor.

The product description had no details on water pump voltage. There should be a warning for Australian consumers that it is 110 volt and requires the separate purchase of an expensive transformer.
