And for those concerned about Leonardo....he seems to be doing better and eating....not sure if he passed something or not....once I saw something big and black in the bottom of the tank.....could have been the gravel.....at any rate......he is doing fine now.....and the color on the other two's undersides seems to be getting lighter as well.....I was feeding them overly, I believe....so am cutting down my portions.

Thanks for all the help.....I will keep you guys updated as i make changes

Great set-up, your turtles look like they will be occupied for quite some time.

Might want to change the glass thermometer to a digital or stick-on as they get bigger though, as they may break it if they hit it strong enough.
