Habitat - Indoor :: Turtle Topper-She wont bask

[steve]

Eggcrate or acrylic will make a fine fence.

[Skippah]

OK I'll try to find some eggcrate at.. do they have it at Menard's?

[steve]

Menard's is not in my area, but they should have it. Check the lighting section. A local hardware store should have it too... maybe even cheaper.

I just have a tiny ace harbpdware

[Skippah]

I think I hear her climbing the ramp. not daring to look

[steve]

Hehehe, good luck!

[Skippah]

I got egg rate from Home Depot and made a top and put a lot of water in. She DOES bask, but only when I'm not in the room. When I walk into the room I seem to see a skipper-sized object splash into the water. He he. So, until future notice, case solved!

[steve]

Sounds normal, good for Skipper (and you).

[Skippah]

My 2nd DIY project for skipper

Looks good. It doesn't bother her?

[Skippah]

What?

[steve]

The topper, does it offer her enough privacy? They're sometimes skittish around new objects in their environment.

[Skippah]

She has a lot of plants in her aquarium. And another one is coming today. She doesn't seemed bothered by it at all.
