Hi there guys, We recently lost one of our musk turts to organ failure and in somewhat of a panic, did a massive tank overhaul thinking it may have been our fault she became unwell. I DO know better but in my panic STUPIDLY cleaned out all of the filter media in tap water rather than tank water...

hiya, I have 2 musk terrapins and have had them for coming up to 6 years now. I recently found out that one of them had shell rot so I was given a pet safe iodine to use once a day to clear it up. The infection seems to have cleared as there isn’t an obvious open wound anymore, but she is still...

So a few days ago, I noticed something odd on my musk turtle (I believe he's about 2 years old, however I'm not certain). As seen in the pictures, the shell has some brown spots. When the shell is dry, the spots look like they're coming off a bit? I looked up if it could be shell rot, but it...

Hello, I have 2 musk turtles free to a good home. We simply do not have the time to give them that they require, and with an increasing workload, I foresee this getting worse. I acquired the turtles around 7 years ago. They were in a sludgy tiny fish tank in the corner of a student house. The...

hey all! so in going to check on my snake today, i noticed he left a white.. something next to his hide. it looked a lot like medicine out of a tube, and it was mostly opaque, but it also looked like it would have been translucent if it wasn't compacted together like that? it had had a...

Hello, My musk turtle seems to have lost claws on both front paws, oddly both are the middle claw. One of them looks sore though, as if she hurt herself, or maybe was bitten by the male. Can anyone take a look and check if I should do something about it? She’s still quite active and eating fine...

Hi All. First time turtle owner here. We have 2 musks which are still young (approx 5mnths), and want to make sure that the filters are working well enough for them. At the moment, we have a ZooMed 318 filter in a 30gallon tank which seems fine at the moment. I am starting to see that the...

It is with a heavy heart that we are having to find a new home for our musk turtle, he is gorgeous but we just cant afford to keep running the tank and I desperately need the space for our growing family. He is a great swimmer, when we got him he was malnourished and tiny despite being 2 years...

Hello, We need to rehome our male musk turtle. Since we downsized (used to have 2 tanks now have only 1), he's been harassing the female non stop. Be aware we're not providing the whole set up, only the turtle. If you're interested, send me a message here or [email protected] Thanks

Hi, We have recently moved one of our musk turtles to a pond outside. We weren't planning on moving him that early in the year, but he was bullying our other musk so we decided to put him in the pond. We understand that it's still quite cold, but we were concerned about the other turtle's health...

Hi so I have a 20 gallon long tank, and on Tuesday i'll be buying my first turtle! I've had 2 different stores getting in touch with me, one who said I can have a single razorback musk baby for £50, or 2 for £90, and the other saying I can have a baby map turtle for £25. Need some opinions and...

Hi, I'm getting a baby Razorback musk turtle next Tuesday but just want to make sure the setup is correct before I collect it! I'll leave a link to the pieces I'm picking up and if you guys could give me some advise regarding things to get in advance, or if you think the setup is incorrect...

I've got 2 pet turtles, Common Musks. Unfortunately due to redecorating of the room they are in and me having no alternative place to locate the tank I need to get rid of them. Is this something that anyone here can offer any assistance with. I'd love them to go to a good home or to a shop that...

Hi guys. Looking for young, preferably less than 6 months old, Razorback Musks. I live in Glasgow, Scotland, and I am willing to travel if necessary. Hoping you guys can help me out by putting me in contact with breeders or pointing me in the right direction. Thanks, Graeme.

As I am going to university next year (where there is a no pets policy in my halls) I am giving away my turtle. From the nail length and concave plastron I estimate that it is a male turtle. He has a shell length of 10cm and eats everyday. He loves to bask which is a rare trait from this mainly...

Two Female Musks for rehome. One adult one slightly younger. Both in good condition and eat/poo as they should. Both confident+active and don't mind human interaction (not handling ofc). Sold alone, so having your own aquarium with correct lighting+basking area is a must. Also care...

I have a male razorback and a male common musk turtle, the razorback has always been slightly bigger of the two. I have had them for almost 4 years now and just recently the razorback has been biting the common musk. He bites the back of his shell by the tail and doesn't let go. The common musk...
