Ok, question for some folks...

I'm moving to a new place next weekend and am very excited about it. However, I'm not to sure how to move the turtles and the setup. ANy suggestions? Obviosly I would take all the water out of the tank and clean it real good and what not, but I guess my biggest concern is the physical move. I mean, in the car moving. Anyone have any suggestions for me?

I'm moving soon, too...
You're supposed to transport the turtle in a large container (with no water) with some moist towels. Keep a lid on it with holes in it for breathing. Also, if it's gonna be a long trip, carry a bottle of drinking water with you to re-wet the towels when they're dry.

Good luck!
