Cory's mini musk turtles are getting a new home! Cory explains his plans for the tank, the substrate, their diet, and why there are no plants in the tank. After master breeder Dean helped to install a lay box and floating dock, the turtles immediately started laying eggs, so hopefully we'll see new babies in 3 months!

How cool you caught her laying on camera! Turtle eggs bring me back to the days of the turtle egg hatching livestreams xD
Oh and just heard you mentioned the blind ones! They’re with me :D and all 6 still happily kicking, despite their handicap….they’ve even managed to catch and eat platies 😂
@@TheTurtleGirl that's awesome!!!!!
I have a musk turtle and i had no idea cory did too! thats so cool to see them lay! i would love more musk turtle content!
So awesome to see these little guys still going after all these years!
I remember my uncle used to have turtles and the way he collected the eggs so they weren't disturbed was to simply use a spoon and scoop the egg and the sand directly below it.
The tenderness you have for these adorable ridiculous lil grumpy old man turtles is so heartwarming and soothing
Cool. Babies,!
Really enjoyed this video. Something you don't see everyday and I appreciate the small updates and look forward to seeing the tank evolve rather than buy $1000s worth of stuff and throwing it in at the same time.
Oh my gosh them eating is so hilarious! They're so goofy!! 🥰
So excited for you guys!
Love the fluffy turtles
Hearing the joy in your voice and Dean's voice IS WHY I STARTED WATCHING ACO CHANNEL.
I'm glad you walked away (as much as you can when this is your livelihood) for a bit, so you could have fun again.
Do what you enjoy, and ignore the naysayers.
Those of us in the Forum and the ones who regularly show up here, are here for your joy. Not to see you perform, but literally to share in your joy.
I got your light today from April's aquarium. I'm happy and surprised how bright it is👍👍
The power of Dean
So cool!!! Thanks Cory 🐢 and Dean!
Just love your beautiful turtles
I love the BBA on their shells. I know that its not exactly a popular opinion, but I think it looks really neat and I've had good luck with it staying in a small clump and not taking over in a few tanks -albiet they were heavily planted and balanced aquariums. I hope to see the hobby move away from algae-phobia in the future. Thankfully, in part thanks to the coop and other ecosystem centric creators, it's already moving in that direction.
I am building a love relationship with my algae!
Each algae actually seems to have a very important part of a healthy, bioactive aquarium.🥰
Love the eggs being laid!
They're so funny.. I remember my old dogs fighting over a bowl of food when there's other bowls with the same food 😅😅
Hey jus saw the video and it's great, I have a female and male turtle 🐢 forever laying eggs and eating them can u make a video on how to make the egg lay box in the tank with what sand ur using that would be great.... Ur doing an amazing job keep it coming
I remember when you first got these. Time sure flys by. Cant wait for you store to finish its expansion. Fish on bro!
I love turtles so much, if only I had the space for them. Someday!
I went to my local shop to buy plants for my first tank!
Suddenly noticed a pair of baby turtles. They are so adorable ❤❤
Well done Momma Turtle! Hope you have lots of babbies!
Super cool
That was awesome.
That lay box and floating island is Da Bomb! They definitely approve with how fast they laid in it. Amazing.
Looking forward to more updates, and more eggs. 5 and counting...
Love seeing Itty bitty lil baby 🐢
👍❤️👍
So cool ❤...
Awesome content Cory, I love your turtles!
Very cute
I love my little musk turtle, he’s so cute! ☺️ I have a small colony of Bloody Mary shrimp, but he eats the babies. I also keep my Elassoma gilberti and Heterandria formosa with him, and he hasn’t eaten them yet. 🤷🏻♂️
I would definitely demand a live cam for the days surrounding hatch day for members only!! 😂
I too have red cherry shrimp with my musk turtle. It is so funny to watch her try to catch them. By the time she strikes, the shrimp are long gone. I also have corydoras, ancistrus and zebra danios with her in the tank. In the past 3 years that I had this setup, I think she ate 1 fish. An ancistrus, but I'm pretty shure the fish was sick because it looked bloated and was swimming funny. There were no other casulties. She does not care about the fish at all. Oh, and she will try to eat the cory eggs off of the glass, but she refuses to eat the ancistrus eggs. Yes I tried to feed the eggs to her, because the ancistrus are going crazy in that tank.
Turtle some day!
Cory this is soo cool!! I haven't had much luck with them. So I can live thru u...thank for the video..keep them coming!! 😊
Guppies and rainbows go great with my Musk turtle!
Awww❤️
They are so cute, I love turtles
awesome!!
I used to work at a greenhouse that had a large compost pile close to a pond that contained some snapping turtles, the turtles would leave the pond to lay eggs in the compost pile which provided heat to hatch the eggs, something how the turtles were able to figure that out
Very cool tank! :-) Looking forward to seeing updates on these guys. And of course their young. I keep my own musk turtle with a pearl cichlid, and a couple of other fish that are somewhat aggressive. But it works, it's a nice balance of personalities. :)
Babies, babies, babiesssssss
How did Dean make the box? Any instructions of set up details?
Awesome
Do pearl danios and white clouds with the muskys
Maybe rainbow shiners
Tooo cute. Thanks Coopy.
Would Danios go with the Turtles?
The feeding was pretty funny. I’d love if you still have the kribs, a similar spotlight
Right a book
Hey Corey huge fan and love your videos. Ghetto is a word we must remove from our vocabulary. Low budget is a great alternative. Hope you understand.
Ate their eyes!!!???
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Will you do more basking areas? It would be so nice to see them all hanging out on rocks on the surface
Where can I get some turtles like these?😮
Hey awesome eggs! Do you use a heat lamp and uvb uva lamps?.. Thanks
Cool
👍🏻👍🏻
Do you sell those lay boxes?
Very cool video! How do you make green water and what does it do for fish and turtles?
I notice that some of these turtles have what looks like black beard algae on their shells. That's not a problem?
Are the hatchling going to be up for sale ?
could you make a video about how to safely keep multiple mini musk turtles together in the same tank
Eggs sometimes doesn't hatch bcoz they are prematurely laid due to stress sometimes they are unfertilized...anyway good luck this time we hope they hatch
Hello, I thought musk turtles should only be kept in aquariums with low water levels, so I'm confused.
How’s the Fly River turtle?
I have to ask, how many gallons is this tank? And what is the male to female ratio?
I'm housing a tiny musk turtle, and i would pay anything to get one of your sand-bed-floating-ramp solution!! I got a plastic Box in the Aquarium (its 112L) so the waterlevel ist to low. there is no good solution on the market... please show us how to build, share STLs or tell me the prize ❤ musk turtles are so cute :)
Hello, I thought musk turtles should only be kept in aquariums with low water levels, so I'm confused I have 5 musk turtles.
Do need one of these lay boxes even if your female doesnt mate with a male?
Do you sell any of the babies? If you do I’d be very interested in a pair

Where can I purchase a floating island for turtles.
Would they be happy being solo? Or are they happier with pals?
In nature they live alone, so they don't really need friends. :-) As you can see in the video, it is possible to keep them in a group, but it requires a big tank and an experienced owner because these guys can be aggressive. For a typical setup, having just one is usually the safest bet.
First one yay!
Hello 😊they eat vegetables o are totally carnivoros?
The Chinese algae eater ate the turtles eyes?
He said Siamese
nice video Cory. have you ever tried to treat ick with garlic?; garlic works for me. I turn the lights off, put a clove of garlic per 10gal, and turn up the heater.
Those eggs won’t be viable
bro you need to clean the musk turtles shells the are bad like
