My b/f's son has bought home a turtle. I've done some research and I think it's an Australian long neck turtle, about 12 cm long. It's in a 2 foot tank with gravel on one half, and water on the other. The store didn't sell him a filter nor advise him as to the need for one and he's only changed the water once, (after I stressed the need..). He uses water conditioner and they sold him goldfish flake food!!! What is a good dry/frozen food? I am going to get him a filter and I need to know what is a good filter to use, one store recommended the OTTO brand, it has a has P/H and pump with foam insert. Will this do. I need to keep the cost down as I'm back at Uni F/T and have a Marine tank as well to keep. Also does the turtle need a UV-light, it's kept in the dark ATM and that concerns me. Also how deep does the water level need to be? Any help is greatly appreciated.
