My favourite turtle, I can't resist their smiling faces. How is it being kept, the water level looks high... although I guess you can't really tell in those pics. |

Hi Dave, the water level isnt as high as it may look, she can sit comfortably with her nose out of the water, but tbh she rarely does  _________________

I really like those. The way they can blend into the background (provided you give them the right background ). They are not very active, just sit there until a fish comes by and then gulp it down. They have bred these at Rotterdam zoo. I also saw quite a few for sale at the last shows here, including a very large adult animal. |

Thanks Ron, this girl is an adult and quite some size, but as you say she just sits there waiting for fish  _________________
