Before we had Herman, Lily was sort of despondent. She was eating and going but... that's it. No basking, etc.
Since then, we got a bigger tank. We got herman. She was SO happy the first few days. Following him, sniffing him... even BASKING. About a week later, she's back to her old ways.
She eats. And she sits in a corner behind the filter. She does NOTHING else. (Except poop!) I have put in driftwood, larger docks, plants, even a ping pong ball at someone's suggestion.
When I take her out to walk around, she just runs for the walls and finds a place to hide. I read, somewhere, that this means she is stressed. So I stopped doing that. I try to hand feed her, and nothing.
Now, the problem is, Herman goes looking for her. When he finds her, he just sits near her, too. Suggestions?
(also on another note: I noticed some posts commenting on the claws of a male and how long they were, as if that were rare. You don't trim turtle claws, right??)
