Caution--Can Kill Your TurtleDec 25, 2009 We started with a turtle dock from this company that attaches to the sides of the aquarium with suction cups. This initially worked well, but as our turtle grew larger he started knocking the dock loose, and he was getting too big for the dock (he is about 5 inches long). We saw this turtle log which looked ideal for him. The log works great for him to get on top of, but he started going in and out of the log and got stuck. It took me about 30 minutes to get him loose. He got stuck again about a week later. We reduced the amount of water in our tank so that if he gets stuck he won't drown. Right now I am looking for an alternative (I am guessing a wooden log or ramp) to this log. The log is made hallow through the middle, and depending on how our turtle crawls through he often makes it in and out okay, but at other times becomes wedged in tightly. He gets so stuck it is difficult to get him out. I'm not sure what this company wss thinking in making this log hollow. Our turtle doesn't seem to need to hide or seek privacy--he simply roams about his tank and gets stuck in this stupid log when doing so. A responsible company would have made this log solid (maybe with a hollow center) so that turtles could not get stuck and potentially die! We paid way too much for this and in return we have to find something else before this kills our turtle. If you have a really small turtle or a really large one, this log would be fine, but if yours is mid-sized like ours--DO NOT BUY THIS LOG--it will kill your turtle!
great productOct 21, 2009 I bought this log for my red eared slider.our tiny keechu loves her turtle log though she is still trying to explore how to go in and out of it ,for the log keeps floating ,but i am sure it will get use to it.It has a very natural look.A product worth buying.But i think it may not be useful when the turtle grows big in size.
Floating turtle logSep 13, 2009 The log is very big but it is wonderful, my turtle has house of fun on his log, he loves to go through it and sun bathe on top of it and go through the hole, I have had it for almost 3 months and it is the best thing I got him. It doesn't leave much room for my fish so I had to put them in another tank but it is wonderful for my turtle.
GreatNov 04, 2008 Our two red eared sliders love this floating log. It is bottom heavy so rolling it around in the water is hard. The only reason I wouldn't give this a 5 star review is that I feel the bottom could be a little heavier because my turtles are so big that they actually have rolled this log a few times!
thanks

Turtles love itMay 27, 2007 I have an assortment of aquatic turtles and they love the log. I highly recommend it. It does move around in the tank and if you have a musk turtle or turtles that can climb, use caution b/c they may try and escape. I have the largest turtle tank with the cut out on the side and when the log is near the filter, he trys to climb out by way of the filter. Overall, the log is great.
