ya lor. i will change water twice per week. Somemore 100% for 3ft tank. If i dun feed my pnt turtle enoigh, it will keep on jumping in the tank and splashing water to alert me. If there is no one at home, it will sleep at a corner. Once we open the door, the turtle will wake up and swim toward our direction in the tank.

expected to see that turtle when i saw the title "Turtle Strikes Like a Snake".

that is a species of Soft Shell Turtle, not a PNT. u can confirm by looking at the webbed feet between 2:16-2:20 in the vid.

PNTs have flippers:


PNT wont get that big. that SST is ~3-4' SCL. PNTs only max out at ~2' SCL.
