RIP Donkey

Well, this weekend Donkey passed away! I'd had him less than a week. I feel really bad, but I'm thinking with no foot he was sick and it's probably best. So, I moved Shrek into a new tank with clean water and hopefully he will survive. I have the tank wrapped in a towel to keep it dark to help de-stress him.

So, now I have a 20gal tank open again! So, maybe we'll get a turtle. I i'm researching turtles to see what the best kind is to get. I'm not sure if I want a water or land. I'm thinking water, cause I hate dealing with all that moss and crap you have to put in the tank. So we'll see. I have to get the shop-vac and clean out the tank and wash it all out. For a turtle i'll need basking lights/basking docks/ another new filter/possible heater. So, here's another 100.00 of crap! lol

Anyway, we'll see what happens.
