no, they bask usually in the morning as that basking port got superbly yummy direct sunlight from morning till noon. yaa that port is rili hot. even i cant stand the heat.

the lamps just to provide a little light & heat at night. and to help them see themselves~

auw, how to calculate gallon, given foot? a friend of mine told that, ___ gal = LWH / 231. where LWH in inches.

lessay L = 24in, W = 12in, H = 12in. so LWH = 3456 cubic inches. LWH / 231 = 14.9 gal. correct aa?

edit: oh and what will be the dimension? as a 15-gallon comes with 2 kaki lebar, 1 kaki panjang, 1 kaki tinggi.
edit2: oh the dim can be seen here

so what is the price for a 120-gallon?

from what i understand, we can say...

aquatic - always in water. very seldom on land. example marine turtle, green sea turtle, fly river turtle, RES, painted, common map, eastern mud, matamata, side necked and blax3

semi aquatic - most of the time in water, but go up to land to bask, breed and feed. they usually shit and piss in water. contoh, spotted, malayan box, pond and so on.

semi terrestrial - most of the time on land, but sometime soak themselves in water. to breed, sometime to feed, to escape from predator. shit & piss on land.

terrestrial - always on land. water just for drink and humidity. CANT swim.

ethereal - sometimes seen flying, floating on cloud 9. after u dead, surely u can have this type of turtle. oh they cant be repaired.

my 8 RES getting bigger! in july, i bought them. 50 cent size. now their carapace length almost 3 inches. but only half yang develop. 4 lagi stunned. tak membesar sampai sekarang. aih...

just now when i wash my tank, there are small worms in the water, blood red and got hook at their mouth (or ass, no idea). wonder what are they... then, also in the water, jentik2. shit my tank is very calm even nyamuk can put their eggs. adei.. what to do?

already cuci the tank. so those unidentified side creatures in the tank show that my tank is near original, natural, flora & fauna, environmental setup. haha. that's y my turtles blooms, are strong and wonderful. superb! despite ada turtles yang rencat sket pembesaran nya.

from my prev post, a shop in ipoh offer me baby star for rm80 something. adult male rm800. adult female rm1500. so i assume the price is somewhat tha same around the globe. har har. if u want cheap2, go to india. sri lanka. star mainly from there if im not mistaken.

im going to have myself 2 star this new year. my year 2007 pet azam will be

1. upgrade my res tank from 2 ft to 3 ft plus a canister filter.
2. buy 2 baby star plus the enclosure setup.
