It's just 4 days at my house now.
I took the prints of the whole of this site and I am reading it on the way to office and back for couple of days. I am stunned with the help it provides.
Yesterday after reading a lot from this place I have given him/her a ceramic tank with longer length and added few rocks for basking and this little angel is like 1" or so and saw him basking with it's legs streched and head peached out for long time. He seems to be adjusting with the atmosphere right now and I am concerned about it's diet as for first two days it was eating some stuff but yesterday I didn't found him eating. He is also given a free swimming space of about 95% of the total tank.

Thanks for your concern about him

Well, I don't know how to explain you. May be it's something like a ceramic container where you normally place a plant in. They are available all over Vietnam in huge quanity. The one I have is a bit long in the length, I prefered to use it as it's long and better than that of using a plastic(PPCP/HDPE)/pvc stock tank cause plastic even though it's a long term thing but it has breathing capacity. For example when you use a plastic bottle (water bottle let's say) after few hous of having water itside the bottle inside when you touch becomes soft, I don't know what it is called but it's normally a kind of fungus, at this stage once the turtle is of 1" I don't want to have that kind of things for him where ceramic is always better as it is made up of clay. I have few pictures which I will upload today, but it doesn't show the tank. I will try to do it next time.

Bye
