I like TURTLE!

I have tried many swim platforms for my turtle but this one works! very natural for its habitat. SIZES vary (of course they are literally from the trees). My first order worked perfectly but my turtle has grown so I needed another one. If you don't like the size and shape, don't use it, just return it and order again. My third is now the perfect size for her! very happy! Be sure to boil it first or soak it in boiling water to remove the substance that causes the water to turn brown. I do this…

Pros
  • All green natural product
Cons
  • Not as bold as others

Great but gets moldy if you're not careful

We've been using this for a few months. It took several weeks for the turtle to get to the top. Once they start using it, they use it all the time. They really seem to enjoy sitting there. This turned their bellies brown. It floated well and was soft enough to get on and off, unlike the hard plastic imitations. The fake plastic seems to be too hard for our 7 month old red ear sliders. I had to throw them away because they were starting to look moldy. Mold is not only toxic to turtles, but also…

Pros
  • Use two or more pieces for large terrarium backgrounds
Cons
  • I'll add later

Not too big, sizes vary

I've ordered two of these. One was about 9 inches by 9 inches and the other was 7 inches by 10 inches; one was fairly flat, the other was curved. Sizes will of course vary as these pieces come from cork wood which cannot provide perfect sizes. Since the seller does not cut them to specific sizes, the sizes for each piece are different. This makes the bark look more natural. I'm not overly critical of size differences as I don't use a specific size animal cork. I use them to mount my orchids so…

Pros
  • Can easily be cut to length or shape
Cons
  • Not bad but...
