Well, they finally arrived home with me this morning, got back about 10am but it's taken me forever to set up the blooming external filter!!!! Its an EHEIM ECCO, it seems to be working fine now but it's so big! May have to treat myself to a new filter when I get paid!

Anyhew, here's some photo's of them now they are settled... actually I think all but one are of the more photogenic bigger one, the smaller turtle is a bit shy at the mo... but rest assured, once s/he's settled I shall post some more photo's!!!!

we are still thinking! It's hard to know as not 100% sure of sexes, they said there was one male one female, but everything I've read says that 1yr old is too young to sex? They also think the female is the bigger one? The size difference is amazing considering they're the same age!
