General Care Discussion :: pics of my pond.

this is my home made pond for my three year old female res.

Wow! Very nice!
My only concern is the rocks that lead up to and are on the basking area. Even if they feel smooth, they can often still be very abrasive, and cause sores on your turt's plastron. Just keep an eye out for scratches or sores on the bottom of her shell. Perhaps some sterilized driftwood or corkbark would be a better alternative.

PS- I'd love to see some pics of your pastel BP!

very cool pond. where does percy usually stay? i like the fountain in the middle. How big is the whole enclosure?

nice job.

[camb]

she usually stays around the rock on the filter, or really swimming around the whole pond. but i see her tracks up on the land area. the whole thing 5 feet by 5 feet.
