General Care Discussion :: Sleeping

Do you think it annoys the turtle when the filter is left on at night my reasons are:
1. Noise made by filter
2. Current created by filter.

What do you think .

[Tenodera]

nope. Is it annoying you at night?

[kaimarion]

no not really I just put the pillow over my head .

[Tenodera]

lol I don't think it'll be a problem for your turtle unless it was REALLY loud and shooting out torrents of water.

Is it a waterfall filter?

[Safdar]

Trust me you and your turtle will get used to it
Soon you wont hear it unless you think about it.

[rachel16]

it shouldnt with my two res they have two filters runing at once and they sleep fine.

[roseK]

i dont think my turtle cares, but it annoys me!!!!!!!!! so much. i cant wait till i upgrade his tank and move it out of my bedroom

but i still love my little guy

You can attach a little piece of plexi glass on the lip of the filter to direct the water in the tank

My turtle well sleep with one arm anchoring it to the spray bar.

I have a fluval 2 plus and my little preston likes to sleep with his arms anchored on the top of the filter and his body covers the hole for the out spray so he lives the current all night lol.

Actually, my turtle likes to sit right in the middle of the jet stream of the filter. She doesn't like the "quiet" area of the tank.

[Safdar]

Turtles are soo different

When Mikey was a baby, he would sleep on top of the air stone.
