I'm kind of new to this whole thing, I had turtles when I was younger but that was a long time ago. I was going to put them in my pond but it developed a leak, so until the weather changes the turtles and Koi are stuck inside. Have my turtles in a tank too small, noticed the largest one always trying to get out. Thought the big one male and two smaller ones female, found out opposite. :shock: Now realize female holding eggs found one on the basking area. Made a small nesting area, now waiting to see if there are any more.

6wide x12long x4deep with step down areas for plants along the edge. I made a small stream to feed into it for aeration and added filtration.
