It's called a Fly River turtle. I've had her for more than 20 years.

The floating pellets are koi food. Turtle also eats it in addition to fruits.

Sweeeet :happy:

I've recently watched a video about Japanese breeders and how extremely expensive they can get :what:

Good thing you did't put Opae in there. They wouldn't last long.

Nice pond! How many gallons is that? Heated?

Maybe 1200 to 1500 gallons(?). It's not heated so the turtle is not in there year round. Mostly spring to fall.
