Can this device be used for aquatic turtles?

Yes. Just make sure there is an opening at top of the tank and fix it in place with the clamp provided. It works brilliantly. I've had mine for some time. I dropped it in water once (not in the tank!) and it stopped working, only because it was wet (electronics and water don't mix very well, lol). Once I got it dried it started working again which I think tells a lot about the great quality of the product.

Yes. I use it for 4 aquatic turtles when I travel. It comes with a mounting bracket that can attach to the side of the aquarium. The only down side is it can be a little tough to setup the feeder to dispense an exact amount each time, but overall it is pretty good for the price.

Should be.....I use mine to feed my fish. I have 2 of these and set up 1 for A.M. feeding & other for P.M. feeding when away for several days

I have this platform on our 60 gallon tank with two turtles, a little bigger than yours. The ramp goes down into the water in the center, which makes them unable to escape by going off the ramp sideways and out over the top. The top has a metal secure wire door, and even if your turtle was strong, you could zip tie or wire tie it closed, although mine have never been able to stand on hind legs to investigate this! :) I will try to post some pictures of it at different angles for you

I have my Red Foot and Yellow Foot Tortoises on it, and my Wood Turtles and it works well. Must get the new version. The old version is terrible.

I can't say for certain, but I would guess not. For more information I would go to the Tetra web site.

I don't know if you can use it for turtles, but it cannot be horizontal. The top of the heater must be poking out of the water so it can not be submerged horizontally.

maybe for a land turtles, but not for an aquatic one. these shouldn't be in water...if it is aquatic,maybe use a water heater?

As long as the device has Bluetooth capabilities you will be able to connect to the turtle. If device does not have a Bluetooth setting it will not connect, our older iPods cannot connect because they have no Bluetooth connection.

not sure you need one for a turtle but the Nano is for up to 35 gal of water so go from there sorry im not more help.

I really don't know, I only purchased the Aqua Tranquil Turtle for my grandson. I'm sorry I don't have further info.

Yes. It should work for your adult turtle. Mine is about 10 yrs old and it works beautifully. The canister that holds the pellets is fairly small but you should get at least 1 week of feedings without having to refill it. Example: I went on vacation and was gone 5 days. Came back home and my turtle still had plenty of pellets left to probably last another 4-5 days. And this was feeding him twice a day. I love this feeder! It runs on AA batteries and even when it gives you the "low battery" status, you still have 3 days worth of feedings before the batteries run out. Hope this helps you with your decision!

Not certain. It was purchased for use on my Turtles tank. The one that I have now seems to work properly; however, this is the third one that I have had. The first one just stopped functioning. On the last one, for which I requested & received a refund, the on/off switch wouldn't work (stuck). However, on the basis of my THIRD one functioning properly, I would recommend its purchase.

Technically you COULD, but it'd be a strettch... after my experience working with fish I can definitely this tank is far too small for most aquatic life.

Hello, I hope it`s not too late, to say that this, would absolutely not work as a turtle set-up... especially for red eared sliders. These guys get pretty massive relatively quick. Depending on its gender, in the first two years of its life... it could reach 3-6 inches long. Generally the rule of thumb for turtles is 10 gallons for every inch of turtle. I'm sorry if this bumbed you out. Turtles are really cool pets but need huge tanks. I wish you good luck! Casey

Yes , I have one in three inches of river rock so my four year old turtle "Minnie" will not get to it. Although she still digs it up now and then. Turtles , what can you say! Don't know your set up , just make sure it's covered by water under those rocks.

It fits, but takes up most of the tank. It would work as a temporary fix for very small turtles or frogs and newts.

i have it for a snake. i litely hosed it off before i used it & alot of the moss came off right away & continues to come off w/ each time i hose it off. a turtle could easily bite the pieces of moss right off its very stringy. i have no idea if a turtle could digest it or if its toxic to turtle. i wouldnt take a chance.
