Conditioning the Water for a Turtle?I ran out of water conditioner for my turtle. I was at the store looking for more and they only had 2 different conditioners. 1 was Marina Betta Pure and the other was Jungle Start Right. Are either of these products safe for my turtle? I have not applied any to the tank yet.

Hibernating Turtles Indoors?I have an unusual problem. I have 3 small turtles I would like to hibernate indoors this winter. I don't want to use dirt from outdoors because of bugs and I can't seem to find soil from nurseries without fertilizers (bad for turtle shells). Is there anyone who shares this interest in pet turtles? Thanks.
