Wobbly Basking area for turtles *suggestions*

[billygt]

Hey guys, Just need some help with basking areas.

the other day i went out and obtained a new floating turtle dock, as my emydura macquari had recently outgrown his/her old magnetic ramp one. when i put the dock in the water it is very wobbly and i think my turtle has trouble getting up it. As i previously stated i had a magnetic one before so that was fine. i was just wondering for any suggestions on basking areas or the floating ones. i was considering making my own. but im not sure.

People have come across all sort of challanges in Australia, most have been solved by a variation of the stick or rock. Only recently have people purchased such items. I have no idea why a free stick or rock will not solve your problem.

Cork bark is a good option.

is the cork bark hard to clean, like the algea build up? and how did you wedge it in. did you but that from a nurserey.

sorry for questions

Hi mate, I don't clean it at all, a trio of dedicated Siamese Algae Eaters take care of that. Yes, just wedged in and it's from Amazing Amazon in Melbourne.

Most good pet shops and online pet supplies should carry cork bark. Make sure to shop around, some places are a lot more expensive than others.
