Just would like to share my feelings with you all. I feel so upsad sad.gif when i know & heard so many people dont know the proper way to take care of their pets, especially tortoise. Please everyone... Do some research about the pets BEFORE you buy or adobt them.
I feel shocked mega_shok.gif when i heard they feed their tortoise with apple, cucumber, taugeh, rice & etc doh.gif They dont even know what is basking lamp, UVB lamp, humidity, calsium & etc cry.gif
Please remember, even they are small & little tiny animals, they have LIFE !!! As the owner, we should give them the best for our pets. If not, better dont keep any pet at all flex.gif
For those who still not sure & dont know what suppose to give & provide to your pets, please do some research & ask around. Dont let your pets suffer on your hand grumble.gif

The best... Feed your ST with Mustard Green ( Sawi ), Watercress, Exo-Terra tortoise pallets & GEX tortoise pallets.
2 weeks once can feed them with Hibiscus flower & leaves.
Once a month, feed them with Pumkin as a dewormer.

WATERCRESS - Can find it at TESCO or wet market. If im not mistaken Chinese call is Sak Yang Choy

How much need to spend to feed 2 ST per month? RM5? Included all the bedding, or any other supplement.
*
Not that much actually for 2 Star Tortoise, especially if you follow the one i suggested above. Those Mustard Green, Watercress & Pumkin can buy so cheap from the market while the tortoise pallets you just buy once a month. For those supplements, you buy once & will last for a year. If you use the cat litter recycle paper bedding, you dont need to change their bedding every week or every month. Maybe its will last for 3 months. Anyway, you may need to spend little more on the starting to do the right setup for your ST, like buying an aquarium tank with cover, basking lamp, uvb lamp, thermometer, hygrometer & those supplements.

Dont you feed them wholesome food ?? ie whole live feeder fish or shrimp or did you filet the small fish or peeled the baby shrimp before feeding ?

The bones in the fish , shell on the shrimp = extra calcium !!!

Those water snail can also be used as food n their shell as calcium supplement when ingested !!!

Im im not mistaken, ELMO's is common snapper. Alligator snapper's neck wont be that long.
Hong123's is Ally Snapper from head view & the spiky shape of the top view.
Correct me if im wrong smile.gif

Here is the picture of Baby Alligator Snapper which i took from a website :

The best way to see your snapper is Alligator Snapper or Common Snapper is to see inside their mouth. Alligator Snapper got a red tounge like a worm ( You can see from the picture ). They will open their mouth & play with their red tounge to trap the fish come inside their mouth. When the fish inside, they will SNAP... Game Over rclxms.gif
