Nice! Looks like they need a little help shedding those scutes, or they are on the verge of falling off. Make sure to read the lighting section on the main site. When I saw "Satan" I was expecting a snapper turtle

I have a normal light bulb that is off only at night (and when there is enough natural light). My aquarium is placed near the window and they receive natural light as well all the afternoon till the sun goes down. I think there is no better thing than the sun shining on them and they enjoy it because they bask all day long i'm thinking of making a new basking area that is outside the aquarium right in front of the window so they can bask right when the sun comes up . p.s. I love my turtles as much as anything that matters to me in this life! cheers from Romania!

The window blocks out the uv rays so they aren't getting the necessary amount without a UV lamp. Not sure if you knew that or not.
Your turtles seem to get along so well

Yes, but I use to open the window as well Not sure if you knew that or not. ) (no offence) Had no issues about they're relationship. Only when i feed them, Senilla tends to eat what is in front of Satan sometimes (she accidentally bit him by the leg, but nothing serious happend, they didn't fight or something...)

If the turtle is around 4" in those pictures, then it looks like a girl.
