::Ya don't worry....growing to fast can cause a lot of problems in turtles....shell pyramiding, internal organ damage, etc.

Thats a relief, i was a bit worried cuz i saw some pics on webpages of RES' around the age of mine and they were huge... guess thats what it comes with overfeeding. Good i found this forum to get some help!

:::Relax, you're doing fine. RES's grow slowly. So don't be alarmed that they aren't huge right now...

:::Uhm.. are my turtles too small? I got em in Dec. and the other one in Feb. when they were a few weeks old... just wanna know if im doing well so far, they've grown (not much) though, they are shedding now. Today i put them in a bigger amount of water, will they be ok when sleeping?. Is gravel that necessary cuz i think its a pain cleaning up the container with it so i took it out.
