jUsT i hAvE thought nAh u'r from the northsidE of cEbU... hEhEhE...
Oh my gOOdnEss.. i hAppEnd to scroLL U'r previous pOsT & it's now i realize u'r d' OwnEr of dat swOLLen EyE TURT...
so may i suggest you not to buy a WATER PUMP anymOrE bUT a WATER FILTER instead...

"A filter for the water makes keeping a turtle much more pleasant, reducing the frequency of cleaning. They must have clean water at all times. If you do not have a filter, you will probably need to change the water on a daily basis or no less than every other day, depending on the size of the turtle and the size of its tank. Please dechlorinate your water to keep your turtles shell in optimum health."

Again for WATER Filters: go for RESUN or JEBO brand-names...
check d' label and specs correspOnding 2 u'r TANK SiZE...

awkey kayo nAnG ANTi-CHLOR dUdE...
but to save money, let the water stay in a safe container for almost 24hours, enought time for the chlorine to evaporate...

BTW, how many gallons di emu TURTLE TANK dUdE...

[sandking]

ugh.. colonnade's too far from me..i live in mandaue.
thanks for tip though!

@ hydrozam..

ask lang ko if neccesary ba na a have to change the water every other day, just like pc 101 suggested..
im using a filter man pud noon. in may case man jud. naa ka set up man jud ako aquarium na gi butangan sa RES nya naa pud live fish. para naa cla makaun. if i were not able to feed them, ok lang ba na partial water change lang, like. removing half of the water. and replace the half with new one. in this case dili na naguba ako set up.. pics to follow.

nOpE it's not necEssAry ser if you have a WATER FiLTER dn BiG TANK, plus when u feed your TURTS, feed them on a separate container kay ang TURTS within two hours after eating muh puhpuh rah dayon nAh c'La...
And d' pUhpUh(TAE) is a big contributor of TURT diseases and could make your TURT TANK dirty & cloudy...

Actually am d' one suggesting PC101 to do water change everyday b'cuz of her/his TURTLE HEALTH...

U'r dOing right on the way you do partial water change lng basta big TANKS...
but ug small tanks lng like 5gallons below, much better ug 100% water change jd...

ang turtles ni leostargolem kay mag diarrhea if grabe kaayo ka chlorinated. hugaw kaayo ang tank gud kay sige lang poo2x kadtong nakalimtan ang anti chlorine. luoy kaayo ang turtle pero naka recover rapud, gi butangan ug anti chlorine.
