Update my new tank

It tooks me a week to clean the whole tank.. First I clean the tank with water to remove all the dust and dirt, second I used 50/50 Clorox and water solution to remove the smell and water stains. Thirdly I used vinegar to remove all the stubborn water stains.. and lastly I cleaned the whole tank with clean water for many times.

BEFORE

...AFTER

Kiki and Riri were survey their new home as to decide where to put the master swimmingroom.

Still need to clean the tank again and again with clean water, to make sure all the chemical residue are not in the tank. I will buy small fishs to test the water in the tank.

Turtle's Tank Plan

Tada~! This is what I plan to do for the new tank I got for my turtles. Basically all important equipments included in this plan such as UVB bulb, UVA bulb, Basking Area, Filter and mostly the larger wide 90 gallons tank~! Wuuhuu~!!.. can't wait to setup my turtles new home.

Theres might be few things to change such as the stand or cabinet to hold the tank and the material used to make basking area. I'm thinking to use plexiglass instead the chicken wired. This is because, if I make the basking area something like cages, the UVA exposure and heat will distributed everywhere.. so by using the plexiglass, the heat will stay within the area.

Its been awhile I'm searching this turtle.. I love the uniqueness of this turtle skin pattern and shell. So gorgeous and beautiful. I found this turtle sell at one of my favourite fish & aquarium shop. They sell for RM10 each. Here some info of this turtle.

Scientific Name: Ocadia Sinensis

Common name: Long Tail Turtle / Chinese Golden Striped Neck

Habitat : Slow-moving creeks, swamps, ponds, lakes, and rivers at low elevations. Ocadia sinensis can tolerate a wide range of temperatures from the cooler northern ranges of China and Taiwan to the hot tropical regions of Southeast Asia

Diet: An omnivorous turtle, but hatchlings and males tend to be more carnivorous feeding on insects, larvae, worms, crustaceans, and carrion, but will take in variety of water vegetation. Females and older turtles will be primarily herbivorous.
