Hi Barry, no, not you at all... it's all the 'newbies' and 'wannabe experts' who can't listen to advice and keep passing crap info to other newbies, or believe they know it all as they own a large number of turtles but have zilch/very little experience as they've only been keeping for 5 minutes I wanted a serious group for serious keepers and it's just become like a kindergarden I don't need a FB group to be able to talk to other educated turtle keepers, so thought sod it, I'll leave em all to it!

Yes, I had a Wolf and a Yellow Head Morray. Just a tiny part of the collection I used to keep.

lol its ok mate i was wondering if there was a bottle of something in one of the pics but i couldn't see anything on my pictures

acriflavine? sorry not sure where the question came from. lol

Well hello Mr. Long time no see

Hey, sorry it took so long to get back to you. My terrapin, bruce, stayed in the hospital for 5 nights receiving anti-biotics and once he began eating on his own they let me bring him home. I had to give him anti-biotics for 5 days but hes eating away now and not wheezing at all and seems alot happier! The vet was really shocked that he made it through because hes so small but I'm so happy Thanks for your concern!

Ordinary Norfolk or Common Reed Phragmites australis is the one to use, fast growing and it takes up all sorts of toxins apart from nitrates, I believe it even absorbs heavy metals. I got mine as plug plants on eBay, twenty plugs cost about £25 with postage IIRC, forget the seller now though.

Thanks for the add

The things we go through for our turts! lol Good luck with getting the pond sorted.
