I have seen only a few turtle tank that are actually planned for turtles and this looks one if those few. But I personally don't like keeping them because they will eventually grow too big to accomodate in the house.

thanxx SCORPIO n bobvin.
@SCORPIO first 3 months i kept them in turtle pot need 2 change water twice a day, that time thy were 1 rupees coin size. After that i m keeping them in 2 feet tank with DIY hanging filter now thy r 5" size , going to keep them in 4feet tank frm next week :) , i feed thm turtle food mostly , some time fish food, prawn ,cucumber .
70 % WC every 4th day.

@sushant IMO small turtle can keep in planted tank but around 4" turtle can uproot any thing thy hv vry strong claw , even we cant place thermometer inside.
will keep them at aquarium fr 4-5 yrs thn at my outdoor pond.
