So, I've been keeping fish for a while and my daughter has been asking for turtles. I've thought about going that route as well. So I've got an empty 75 gallon in my living room that Ive decided to turn into a turtle tank. Im looking for suggestions on a good beginner turtle that will thrive in a 75. I don't want to get anything as big as an RES. I was thinking painted turtles maybe. I'd like to get two at least. Am I on the right track with painted turtles? Are there any other good beginner species that would do well in that size tank?
