I hav problem getting UVA & UVB bulb.. i checked on the internet, reptisun 5.0 is the rite bulb but i cant seems to get it here... anyone can help? i m staying in subang jaya..

I feel RES is very easy to care. From my experience, they eat like hungry ghost, swim to you like a shark when they're hungry, easy to clean (and brush their shell. Not resistant to being hand-held), grow fairly quickly and are not picky about food. And yes, they bask like flying. Mine used to shed a lot too. From 20 cent to size of a small plate, Can you imagine the shedding... ^^" Ah, They also used to take turtle pellets from my hands.

@anbusan: if your RES eats it'll grow till its old. Don't worry. Just need to worry about its diet so that its shell doesn't get deformed (providing it eats).

I thought air kolah is good? I also thought that you don't have to use anti-chlorine for air kolah.

U can get them at Natural Aquatic at SS19, Subang Jaya or Pets Safari, Ikano, Damansara.

yeah,u can get there.but i think pet safari have only one 5.0 left..but i dont know if they just add their stock.err,what brand actually?i talk 'bout exo terra.if u wan zoo med or the others,i dont know,hu3.sometimes many bulb u can find in internet,but we dont have stock here..like exo terra Repti Glo 5.0 Compact Tropical Terrarium Lamp,i try to find it every pet shop but didnt find it.and finally someone told me that it will come to malaysia at the end of may..for now i only use Repti Glo 5.0 Tropical Terrarium Lamp for uvb&uva coz uvb bulb really expensive ma..

hehe very cute when they bask, what can we use to brush RES shell? can we use toothbrush?

I give my tortoise fresh pumkin. You can cut them to small pieces or use 'sagat' will be more easier for your tortoise to 'NGAP'

ok,thanx bro..

oo ok thanks

^^ I use toothbrush too. They seem to enjoy it.

ermm.. how much u bought yr bulb? and the compact tropical terrarium i show much?? i m using sun glo now coz my area cant seems to get repti glo.... i they sell mercury vapor kan best~


PS~ thx uzairi.. great info~

i use both sun glo and repti glo.i think pet lover sunway still have some repti glo,near with ur area rite?natural aquatic ss19 also have it.some uvb+uva bulb cost 100 and more...hu3.pet family at taman megah still have a few of that bulb.

Depends, its either you give them fresh or half boiled. Big ones can readily consume the fresh pumpkin even tough its hard but for small specimen, boiling the pumpkin might help them eating them better since its softer. Cutting them into small pieces is a good way too.

Mercury vapour bulbs are not recommended as it might endanger you and your chelonians if any mishap happens. My 0.02 cents

what TTT are talking about ?? RES?
at garage sale, bother nonono is selling uvb bulp.... i u looking for compact repti glow, other store does not have compact repti glow because out of stock, that brother nonono said compact repti glow may arrived in may...just ask him, his price always cheaper than the shop

thanx...

thx man..

do u guys have experience ur TTT vomiting after eat their meal?my smallest tort really have appetite for every meal time.today he eat a lot,and then vomit..after vomit,i clean his mouth and body,and put him in his place..but he continue eating some food again,then sleep..he look healthy,most healthy and active among my tort.. is it ok to him to vomit like that?or that is sign he was full oledi?

It's important to know what do you feed him? Is it oatmeal or vege or others?

How big is your tort and what is the portion that you are giving so that we can make a comparison, then we will know whether he over eats.

Overloading with food can leads to vomiting, i have experienced that before but not as often as yours i suppose.
