Hi, My house mate has 2 5 year old yellow bellied terrapins. By the looks of things their tank is too small, its about 25 gallons big and the male is about 14cm and the female slightly smaller. I was just wondering if anyone has any advice on what size tank they should be in. Also whether they should have a basking light. At the moment they have a UV strip light, the water temperature is 24 celcius. They have a small basking area too. Any advice would be extreamly welcome. Thanks!
they deffinatly should have a basking light and you're right the tand should be bigger but you should talk to your house mate first before damanding a change in tank size
