Looking for turtle supplies

Hey all, im picking up a red ear slider and hes in rough shape. Im looking to see if anyone has any supplies they wanna unload. I need an internal filter for less than 40 gall. I may pick up a 40 breeder for his home. The student he belongs to is afraid hell die without proper care. Classroom pets are not good if noone can care for the pet. He has no heater or heat lamp and just a small 20 long for a tank. I told her i wouldnt let him die. So if uve got anything let me know. Thanks!

 

It has everything. But hes cramped in a 20 long. Ive got what he "needs" but now i want to make him comfortable. Thinking of doin my 75 into a turtle haven. I may run the halides on it for supplemental heating. Sand bottom and im going to attempt to plant the tank. If i can get enough up front he shouldnt eat them all. Ive read that in a bug enough tank cichlids and cat fish can be kept with sliders. Id like a heavy planted tank if he doesnt mow em over. Im going to attempt to feed him romaine and feeder shrimp to beef him up. Ive been reading up a bit. My biggest thing is a dock. I want to try and make one attatched between the overflows. Either way hell be better off with proper food and equipment.

 

I have an extra heater for water. A dual heat light but they dont. So when he comes home ill put everything on the tank. The 75 will be drilled and have a sump so itll be a bigger setup

 

I never asked for anything for free. I merely asked if anyone had anything they wanted to get rid of. I figured freshwater may ne a little odd to look for on a reef site. But if thats how u all feel then see ya on the flip side. Ive had a good run the last few months stayin out of trouble but i guess my time is runnin short. My membership is up next Wednesday and i dont believe ill renew. Thanks to all that have seemed to help me and be cool towards me. I guess ill go for online stuff since im suuuch a bother to the local guys.

 

Heating issue was due to a faulty heater. But i wont bother anyone with my problems. I never saw myself as a bother here. Sorry if anyone has gotten irritated. My biocube is pretty much were i want it so i just enjoy that. Im missing freshwater so thats what i wanna focus on next.

 

Thanks. Ive seen a couple people run them. But those were PLANTED tanks. Expensive high dollar stuff. I like the idea because of heat. The turtle would feel like he was at the beach. Haha

 

Hahahahahaha i was definitely waiting.... lol

 

Yea, id live to see some pics
