🐢 Tetra Aquatic Turtle Deluxe Kit 20 Gallons: Complete Aquarium Set with Filter and Heating Lamps (NV33230) - All-in-One Turtle Habitat Review

My little red-eared slider loves her new home. It comes with everything you need. I added more river rock and a small heater to her tank. She uses the bridge and likes to hide in the grass. It took her a few days to get settled. She is still very small. I'm sure this tank will meet their needs for years to come. The tank is very heavy. Make sure you place it in a good place before filling it out. Rinse the stones thoroughly before placing them in the aquarium. The only downside is the way the…

Would give 5 stars but there are several reasons I didn't. The latches on the lid were poorly made and wobbly, and the entire lid had to be removed to feed. A piece of a large one fell into my aquarium, which I had to look for in the stones and get out. I took a screw of the same size but with a bigger head and it worked better. I would recommend getting a lightweight tripod, it's safer and easier. I bought another lid with a small flap that can be opened for feeding etc so I don't have to…

First off let me say this is a great set for the price. Included in the box are samples of water care products and products, as well as a few extra activated carbon filter bags.

Before purchasing a turtle, research the species and its specific needs (aquarium size, substrate, type of food, etc.). I think this would be a great feeding/temporary aquarium but not for most…

I took responsibility for my RES turtle because my girlfriend's younger brother is unable to take care of a turtle. Turtles are a lot of work. If you are considering buying this aquarium but are yet to purchase a turtle, I would put aside and do a lot of research on what your turtle needs and how to maintain its aquarium needs. Turtles are amazing but require a lot of knowledge, fine tuning and cleaning. I didn't know anything about turtles when I started mine, but I know a lot now. This tank…

This set is amazing! But you still need to buy an aquarium heater. It has almost everything besides that, and without it your turtle will end up getting very sick. I have one (Tetra 26445 Aquatic Reptile Heater, 100W) and it works fine for this tank. It has a plastic cover on it because some turtles try to break the aquarium heater glass. For tortoises, this 20-gallon size is fine while they're young, but as they get bigger, they'll need something bigger. This is actually a great kit for small…
