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.

Fair warning on the size of thisNov 01, 2006
By Sharon Leigh Horney

Just to let you know in advance that this log is great but it is way larger than I expected. While that explains the price, it was too large for the turtle container which we have since released to the wild... where he came from. We now use it in a window for our love birds to play in, they love it! LOL...

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!

My 5" aquatic turtle loves this log. He basks on top of it, moves it around his habitat, and hides from his pet goldfish inside it. Sometimes he's inside for hours with his neck stretched out the sidehole so the tip of his snout reaches fresh air. He stands under it and pushes it around the habitat, and positions it sometimes so the fish can't bother him. I've had this log for my turtle for over 2 years and just love it. It's easy to clean and my turtle is the right size that he doesn't get stuck. I will report back if he outgrows it but for now he's been totally fine.

By C.Huey I have two smaller painted turtles who both love to bask upon this log. I have had this log for about three years now, and while it does show some wear (ala color loss due to the lamps) it still works fine. However, if you do have larger turtles it might be best to not buy this product (most pet stores have this in stock, so you can go over there to get an idea to see how big this actually is).
