i'm not offended, and most of us here aren't either.
maybe you haven't realized this since you're quite new here, but back in 2008-2009, many keepers had been convicted when they are caught with just 1 or 2 animals that were listed under the Wildlife Act. primary reason - they advertised those animals on the Internet. and please note that back then the fine is not 100k. just be careful ok. |

QUOTE(deviannear @ Jul 16 2010, 07:53 PM) Alright , just stick to the thumb rule , 10 gallons of water to every inch of the turtle size , it makes it like a 7 inched turtle should have 70 gallon of water for it. why do RES need so many waters? lol but my little turtle always stand on the bridge..  |
