Actually he only pees/poops twice a day - once in the morning and once overnight - and because it stinks, he tries to get away...but you know la, drydock. After I clean the tank, he settles down and stays still. (My fish only poops while he's eating.) Sometimes he settles down when I take him to sun...like kid la, I tell you.

Iodine from pharmacy lor. RM4.90 a bottle.

That was my brother's picture. He wrote "uzaimy confirmed" because wanna prove to his friends that the picture is genuine.

They will sleep, don't worry. The uv lamp/fluorescent lamp is not that bright.

woo run away because of the stink of his poo. very funny considering turtles sometimes eat their own poo

herm, i think i would try drydocking and on uv lamp 24 hours. maybe things will turn out better for my turts

Tortue damn kelakar today. Because I cannot tahan the sound of his shell hitting the tank bottom every time he climbs around, I put filter sponge on the bottom and a clean piece of A4 paper la.

I have a cardboard covering half the tank for "shade", the basking lamp turned on (it's anywhere between 28C to 30C for him now) and UV light aimed at an angle where under the shade oso can shine on him.

Anyway, he's sleeping, eyes closed and every thing, in one corner, closest to the basking light/under the shade. Ocassionally, he's like sleepwalker, start to scratch the paper like people getting comfy and then he'll turn here and there but the eyes will still be close. THEN, because the paper curls up around the corner and it's soft, he'll put his head down on it macam pillow. FUNNY MAN! I should take a pic la.

I saw the zoo in ikano selling alligator snapping turtles for RM500++...

Take video terus.

Yes we can, doesnt mean they can bite our finger we cant rear them. Just that we need to be extra carefull. That's all.

Dude, this is TTT Thread.

Hahha... sorry, topic merged... just now.

No wonder.

Hun, how's Mango ? Planning to get a partner for him ?

Mango doing fine... Ah... no partner wor... coz my parents don't approve... yet hahahah....

No need approve one mah, put under ur bed can already what. Afterall there's a lot more hiding in your room and i guess another one wont be noticed also.

HAhahah.... must also find healthy wan mah heheheh.... I scared liao last time purchase small ones... then big ones must find the cash to buy heheheh.... still must wait lah. Mango needs a female LOL.

Yaloh, for a 4 inchers it would costs around rm200 averagely. Natural Aqua or Pets Family would do it.

OOOOO...I am pleased to inform you folks that Tortue's fungus is slowly receeding (the one shute that was covered entirely in white is now 1/3 green!). Will take a pic tomorrow.

So glad to hear that tortue's recovering, i forgot to mention about the salt soaking method, but you've found it anyway, good one

btw, i see uzairi has answer you with the bethadine question... bethadine is actually, we call it "yellow water medicine", ppl use to prevent infection on cuts or small injuries...

uzairi... any update on eheim?

Hi all...went to Ikano today...saw some big tortoises in the big jungle enclosure....and seekor big Softshell macam sesat inside. The rest are all what i've seen since last time. Today gatal go tanya how much is the juvenile Star Tortoise hehheheh...RM230...is that a reasonable price?

Anyway saw some Yellow Bellied Sliders Pretty striking laaa the colour...RM40...thinking hard thinking hard...

Uzairi i wanna see pictures of your Asian Leaf!! HHehehheh...sorry getting impatient when it comes to turtles! Maaf laa bro always urge you...sorry sorry...


Kamekame.

de big softshell u see which u claimed sesat is not a softshell... it's a pignose turtle... hehe... kinda big yet fat hor... hahaaa!!

yellow bellied slider RM40 d ar?? de other day i went it was RM50! apalar...

why not just go for star tortoise kamekame? or de yellow bellied slider oso can ar? as it's something diff unlike common RES...

asian leaf i wud say not so nice lor... hehe... see lar... mayb diff ppl diff view kua...

That's a good news sis.

No updates yet, wont be going there until next week.

Im not sure but i think that's not a softshell. Because last time i see it was an Asian Giant Pond Turtle, not a softshell. And juvenile star for rm230 is a overkill. Their prices always changing one coz they sell it expensive ppl dun wanna buy.

U want the pictures badly eh ? Give me 1-2 days, i'll post the pictures for u dont worry. Now a bit busy coz preparing to go back to cyberjaya.

Kamekame wanted to play with asian turtles first eh ?

Eh, just wondering. Is it normal for Tortue to sleep all day long when he's being drydocked? (Actually there is nothing for him to do oso apart from sleep and pee/poop!)
