Ok to start with my turts stats are in my profile now with that said here is what I am going to do and the questions I have?! * I am off to buy a Fluval 404 and a bigger tank * I feed my turts in their tank just to save on time (I am a fulltime student and I have a part time and A fulltime job) * Will a Fluval help me with my cleaning? * Do I need to do a water test on my water? (they seem fine with the Reptisafe I use) * Why have they decided not to eat the guppies they seem to become friends instead of eating them? * They do not eat the cuddle bone anymore? * Tubby is 3X the size of nipper? * Nipper baskes more than tubby? Just a few questions

Hi, Well, one thing I can tell you is that the Fluval will help to keep your tank a bit cleaner, but I HIGHLY recommend a Python kit (I got a 25 foot which seems to be the smallest size for about $40 at local pet store) to change the water every so often. The filter will keep it cleaner, but doesn't seem to keep water super clean for too long. The Python kit is a suction thing that you attach to your sink faucet, and it is so easy to use, and FAST! Sorry, I am a little new to this so that's the only question I can answer right now. Just throwing a question out there: Would you (or anyone else) happen to know the best filter media and set-up (which stuff goes where) for a Fluval?
