Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Hatchling Stinkpot
Ok i think im doing this right but ill put details here for review.
I Found a hatchling stinkpot near where i fish and decided to raise it at home. I already own a 10 gallon tank so thats what im using (i will get a larger one in a year when the turtle is 2+inches). I have it setup with mostly water (about 6 inches) as the stinkpot is mostly aquatic (as per my research) I have been trying to feed it pellets but it is slow to eat them, so i bought some frozen blood worms and he has been eating them very well. I have the water temp set to around 78F and filter that is designed for tanks this size or a little bigger (terra repto filter). There are places for him to hide and a UVB bulb. The basking area is small but stays relatively warm. Since he is still young i feed him in the tank and he walks around the bottom and eats. I have added a slow dissolving calcium supplement (little white turtle) to the water.
TLDR;
Hatchling Stinkpot (musk)
10 gallon tank
Terra ReptoFilter
Blood worms
Calcium supplement
UVB lamp
I have read EVERYTHING about these guys (and also maps) so i think im doing it right. What do you think? any questions?
