Ha ha.... I've always loved the look of Mata mata. I won't ever get one, just love how they look...
Excellent shots BTW

Wow! I am so jealous, your turtles are awesome. I love Matamatas and sidenecks in general. I rescued a African Helmeted Turtle (Pelomedusa subrufa) he had shell rot and actually had to have it drilled by the vet, so he isn't the best looking but he is by far one of my favorite turtles.

Your setups are great. My guys go outside for the summer but while they are outside I will be working on redoing all of their tanks and seeing other people's setups really help. I never even thought to use the wet/dry filter and I have a few of them. :dunce: Thanks for the videos they helped me with some ideas.

Hey Brad...nice to see your "face" around here. Very cool turtle! Scary as hell looking, but cool.

That turtle is probably THE only turtle that has ever scared me just by looking at it...LOL
It by far is the most amazing turtle I have ever seen. Thanks so much for sharing it with us!
