I didn't know that not fully submerging your ally snapper in water will cause it to be... well.. snappy. hmm.gif No wonder my lui lui is so lazy. She has so much water in her tank.

Is it the camera or is the snapper's tail green from algae growth?

More sunlight? Basking makes them more active. And basking helps them digest some vitamins. Move more, digest more, can eat more I guess.

hey guys. wanna know if its normal for the green turtle(the normal turtle available at all petshops) to have their skin peeling off while in water? i got 2 turtles. one of em doesnt seem so keen on eating. its like that turtle is on hibernation mode. is it normal?

Erm... Skin peeling of as in? If you see floating pieces of their skin in the water, yah that's normal. smile.gif They shed skin as they grow bigger.

O.o How come not keen on eating? This is Malaysia, they don't go into hibernation. Do you let your turtles bask? Red ear sliders love to bask.
