Looks like Christmas came early! How much did that cost? If you don’t mind me asking. That all looks awesome how’d you get the tank inside?

The tank was £600 second hand
The sand is a very fine play sand from wicked about £20
rainbow fish were £80
Fly River turtle £900
A lot of saving up! Been interested in them for years and have been researching and saving up for around 2 years.We had to flip the tank sideways to get into the fish room have some pictures of the move

They absolutely are amazing to watch. How they fly around in the water, almost like an eagle in slow motion. Beautiful creatures. I'm sure you're going to spend lots of happy hours just sitting in front of the tank watching them.. Enjoy!

Luke, my man, care to speak on the filtration of this tank? It wouldn’t be a stretch to imagine that this turtle puts out a a good bit of bioload.

Nice turtle. Any update?
Surely she will outgrow that tank given time?
