Zoo Med Floating Turtle Log

Bought for my daughters aquatic turtle tank, great quality and the turtle absolutely loves it!

Purchased for my pond turtle, Walter. I read conflicting reviews about whether it floats or not...it does! We stuck it in the pond and Walter loves it. Hes an adult red eared slider, about 7-8 inches, and loves to climb on top of it to bask. It supports him well. Our pond fish love swimming through it too, especially when buzzards go overhead, though Ive yet to see our frogs use it. Will be buying more soon!

Love it

I came across this Turtle Log and although I do not have a turle, I thought that maybe the fish I have would like it. They did!!! I have caught my SP44 cichlids spawning/breeding a couple days after I introduced it to the tank. The log looks real and has several holes for the fish to swim through. It floats great and has maybe an inch or so above the water line. I would rinse it well with warm water though. The one I received had a oil coating or something on it maybe from production that might hurt the turtle or fish. I rinsed, wiped down with a clean towel, and rinsed it again just to make sure. Also, it could have been from the styrofoam packaging. Anywho, its cool, looks good, and the chicks dig it... Love, Peace, and hair grease :)

This log is perfect for my two hatchling res. They are about six months old and 3 and 2 inches respectively. The log is their favorite place to bask, although we use it as a secondary area since it doesnt remain securely placed under the lights. The larger turtle barely fits through the side openings at this point, but still has plenty of room to swim through the end openings. I was hoping they would put out a larger version for as my little guys get bigger.

Great for water turtles, will not spin and floats well, They are not very big, a large works well in a 20 gallon long tank

Our two red eared sliders love it. They hide inside and bask on the top. Well worth the money. Very happy with this product.

When I first saw this in the store, it shocked me at how perfect it looked for my turtle pond. I bought it for far more than i paid for my second one here, but it was still worth it. I saw the turtles spending most of their time hiding in it. I have: Red-Ear Slider - Kespacho Western Painted Map - Atlas Reeves - Christopher Reeves African Side Neck - Sophie the Sophie and Reeves spend most of their time in the logs while Kespacho and Atlas roam around. My biggest concern was that it would not hold a 3-5LB turtle, but I was very wrong I would creep up to the pond and catch them over and over with Multiple turtle on a single log. I have never to date seen them crawl up there, so I am not sure how they do it. The point is they can and do. My only modification I have made to mine was to create an anchor point using a small Anchor stone and some fishing wire which I have now changed to cotton thread. Even though Ill have to change the thread more often the Turtles can see it better so they wont get tangled. The Detail on the outside when new is very good to excellent. It is very durable product wise having had mine in an outdoor pond now for about 4 months. I would state that the paint coloring has dulled a bit but the tint of algae has crept in so it doesnt affect it much. Its weighted perfectly so it floats very well for them to come up to it. If you have a turtle in the mid range which may get stuck in the opening I would recommend removing it till they have put on another 1/2 inch. Overall a 5 star product especially for the price.

The log just kinda floats from one side of my 55 gal tank to the other, and the turtles have no idea what to do with it. I think they’re too big for it also, so that may just be the problem since they’re both adult female red ear sliders. I think it would work a lot better if there was a way to keep it floating in one spot, instead of all over the tank. I really love the idea though and it looks pretty cool

I bought for ACF and they love it, along with my blood parrots they were both hanging out in it by the end of the first day. I see them selling in stores anywhere from $45-50 I got online for $27. It is very big as i was hoping, wouldnt reccomend for anything under 50 gal due to size. Over all a happy customer got product with 3 days
