Tiny Turtle
About a year ago my kids found a tiny little turtle in the back yard. We looked it up on the internet and decided it was a baby water turtle, put a tank together for him, and named him Scooter. We have loved having him around. The kids feed him and watch him swim around the tank. My question/problem is that he is still super tiny. He has barely grown in the year we have had him. I called the pet store and they said I have the wrong kind of light on him and am stunting his growth. So, what I want to know is have I harmed him by not letting him grow? Do I HAVE to get the UV light or should I just keep it how it is?
