As probably everybody will agree, having turtles is a learning experience :wink: so it took us a while to get everything really set up how we wanted it, the right tank, filter etc. And after having read about aquarium background pictures, I found a great one and can't tell you how happy I am about it! To me it makes the look of the tank so much more complete!!!

I just had to share :D

After

And a pic from the time right after the first initial filling with water, ~2 days later..
(I know you all said, it would clear up, but I was really 'nervous'... and now it's beautiful and 'crystal' clear! ;) )

Also at this point I'd like to thank everyone again who's been giving me kind advice and answers to my questions! I really appreciate it!

Very nice, one happy turtle.

Is there a UVB and a UVA light in there?

Thanks! Actually 2 happy turtles :wink: And yes, there's a Zoo Med UVB light which apparently also has a small percentage of UVA. Plus the heat lamp, of course.
