Then I bought Elvis as a normal red eared slider but then I discovered he is a Rio Grande RES. He dont have the "ear" divided but he has the typical coloration of a Rio Grande. He is about 6 inches now and his weight is about 290 grams, he is too thin so the vet told me to feed him with pellets some days a week more than normally. Last time the vet also told me that he was allergic to fish :S and thats because every time he ate fish he became so puffy, and his breath was so irregular. So since May he isn't eating fish. He eats a different pellet without fish, is "Wheat Germ for koi" from Tetra. He also has a infection on the shell, he is under treatment and doing all right. He is living in a 100 liter tank with a pleco fish.
Sam and Beth were bought as a child's toy and this summer I rescued them from a 20 liter tank for both turtles
Now i'm preparing a 100 liter "pond" (with a tupper) for both of them. by now they re living in an old tank of about 40 liters. They re both about 6 inches. They are living in my grandparents house.Sam:

Sorry for the bad quality image, I'll try to took a better picture of him.
