I've finally upgraded them to a real tank, instead of a quarantine-esque set up :)

they're not basking just yet but I don't expect them to get used to such a dramatic change for a few hours at least

I'm assuming the red bulb is heat and the other is UVB?

Yeah, the red is an infrared heat bulb and the other is a uva/uva. they're the same lights i had before. I only had to buy the tank, the rock, and the log thing. all in all it was like $50 and I'm really content with that. Even if it's a little high, I found everything at the only aquarium store I've seen within like 30 miles so I wanted to support them.

Your turtles are extra cute! Mine isn't cute anymore :( It was still a hatchling at around this time last year but now it's like 2 and half inches.

ooo your's grew a lot! mine are around two inches right now. they were really sick when they were like a few weeks old and i think it stunted their early growth a bit.
