albino red eared slider and southern painted turtle

Rochester NY

Description

I have a female albino red-eared slider turtle and a male southern painted turtle they are both about 7 years old. I am planning on moving and unable to take them with me. I am looking to re-home them together. Only want to them to go to someone who is familiar with caring for aquatic turtles. They need at minimum a 40 gallon breeder tank and ideally larger than that-75 gallons would be preferred. They will need filtration, platform to get out of the water and bask under UVB and heat light. As a staple diet I have been feeding them floating AND sinking commercial turtle pellets. The albino RES is partially blind (as most albino animals are) and will search for floating OR sinking food. They will also occasionally eat feeder fish or worms or some greens. I am asking a 75 dollar re-homing fee including both turtles-I do NOT want to separate them. Given proper care they could easily live another 20 years in captivity. These are not good pets for young children without supervised adult and are more for watching than handling. I am unable to include any supplies with the turtles-you will need to get tank, filter, basking platform, UVB & Heat Light, light timer, water declorinator, food. I CAN include a submerrsible tank heater if you do not have one. They have been together since they were hatchlings and are fun to watch, especially when feeding.
