Fred's new tank

I got a belated Valentine's present yesterday, a new tank for Fred! No longer must he live in a Rubbermaid container with a chicken wire top.


He now has a 40 gallon tank to swim around. Unlike the Rubbermaid container, it is clear so we can actually see Fred.


He still has his favorite hiding log,


and his favorite basking platform.


He even got another basking spot.


You can't tell from the picture, but he still has heat lamp and UVB light. He is one happy turtle (with a happy mama).

We got that same basking platform when we had tadpoles last summer. After a few cleanings and moving it around, it broke in several places. Be careful when removing and cleaning it. The tank looks awesome!
