Musk turtles are a great introduction to aquatic reptile keeping. Staying small, yet packed with personality, you really could watch them all day. Very friendly little guys who are entertaining to watch and interact with. They can generally live singly, in pairs or in small groups, as long as the size of the tank and strength of your filter is adequate for the bio load they will produce.
