First if you have not already got a tank, go to a pet store and ask for the right size tank for your turtle. Also while you are there get at least 2 or more bags of gravel. Plus get some sand too. fill the bottom of the tank with the gravel and put a large hill goring up with the sand so your turtle can have land. put some small logs and drift wood into the tank so your turtle can hide. also put some aquatic plants in to so if you forget to feed it he/she can eat the plants. plus get a filter. then put your turtle in and he/she can enjoy the tank.

Can a baby eastern painted turtle live with a baby hermann's tortoise?
you should not put them together because tortioses live on land with little water. eastern painted turtles love water and spend most of their time in water. what i would do is get two different tanks to put them in. by the way eastern painted turtles are omnivores and hermann's tortoises are herbivores. the two wouldn't work together.

How do you care for a painted turtle that almost drowned?
Well you have to have a UV Light, a Turtle Dock, a Filter, a Heater, and at the least a 10 gallon tank. You need 1 gallon per inch of turtle. I have two baby painted turtles and they eat "Baby Shrimp and Krill" and eat alot each day. You should get some plants and gravel to put in the tank too. Turtles love to swim, so in the summer you can build a little pond and let the turtle live there until late autumn. You need to leave the UV light on at least 6 hours a day.
