General Care Discussion :: I am about to paint...

Should I movie my fish and turts out of the room

[blackforces get you]

id do that. more space, lower chance of accident, and it probably might look nice in that other room

You could cover the tanks, but there's always the danger of spilling some paint or contaminating the water in one way or another. So I wouldn't take that risk if I were you. If it's not too difficult, I'd say move them.

I'd just cover the tank unless you need to paint behind it. There is a slim chance that you'll spill or drip (and if you use a good plastic cover, it shouldn't go through) and the fumes aren't going to hurt your turtle. However, use your discretion.
