    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Could I go about using a sterilized dirt mix or topsoil for an aquarium substrate instead of rocks or sand? I want a more realistic look for my Map, Mud, and Musk Turtle tanks. Thanks!

Dirt + water = mud. It won't just nicely settle to the bottom like gravel or sand; you will literally have black muddy water to the point that you can't view your turtles.
