however any turt needs a uv and a basking spot and a dock 
but that tank is excellent for baba turtles!
oh and turtle BITE HARD! lol our fingers look like prawns! yummy! and they are messy, i clean out mine once a week, and you need a strong filter! they do big poo's...

Couldnt have put it better!!
i had 2 yellow bellied sliders and the females defo grow bigger than the males, i have had to rehome them as i just dont have the space for a bigger tank and they are about 3 years old female and male is about 5years.
they are missed very much but at least they have more space in there new home.
