:Just got a pig nosed turtle a couple of days ago and put him in our tropical tank. When the light is off he swims around plenty and looks very comfortable. But when the light is on he doesn't move too much...is this normal, is the light too bright perhaps?

:It is just a flourescent tube light, standard for tropical fish tanks.

:Thanks for any insights anyone has.

I heared that it is illegal to import fly river turtles from autralia where they are from so they are probably going to decrease in the pet trade soon get em while you can good luck
