Food help for my baby sliders?
There is a wide variety of commercial foods for turtles. You can feed her with commercial foods but you must vary the diet. Do not feed it ONLY commercial foods. Check the nutritional contents of the food. It should have less than 35% protein and the best commercial foods for the turtle are those that have both calcium and vitamin A. I personally like Tropical Magic from L%26amp;M Farms, but there are other good ones like Reptomin.


As for the light:


You need two lights, one for UVB (Reptisun 5.0) and


one for heat. Make a basking area and place the heat light


over it to reach 85-90 degrees. You can use a regular household bulb probably about 25 watts. Make sure you check the area with a thermometer for proper temp. Don't worry about a heater.





Leave the heat light on for 12 hours during the day and 10-12


hours off at night. This bulb will heat the water enough in


the small aquarium.
Reply:I use Reptomin for my turtle and my frog loves them as well.
