ive always wondered how one would get such a clear pic of a pet. what kind of camera do you use? is the flash on or off?

You need to add alot more water (RES love deep water). I would ditch the rocks, a few rocks spread around the bottom are okay, but too many isnt.

Cute turtle, :)

Is that the Wterfall filter? if so, by experience, it only limits the ammount of water that gets in. once the water is higher than the desired line, the filter is no use.

thank you for the tips i have a little palm tree sunning thing to put in there i want to keep the rock that i have now so they have someone place to hide and yes with all the rock in there it is very hard for the filter to work efficiently
