[rlhirth]

hey all i finally got Phent my african soft shell back in his tank... no plants yet... but at least hes back in his 75 gallon and not cramped after the big leak!!!

here's the set-up so far... cycles... just waitin to get my live plants... sence i had to ditch all the old ones when i had to do all the tank switchen....

and here's Phent!!!

his neck can stretch a good 2 more inches!!!

sorry for the blurry pictures... all i had on me was my cell....

i also have 2 red eared sliders... but when i was takin pictures it was late and they were in there cave for the night...

When Phent is full grown his shell will be dinner plate size and his neck will be a good foot and a half long when stretched out. He will also loss his beautiful markings! Well there's a slight change he may kEep about 5 percent of them!
