i have 2 painted turtle and 3 red eared sliders in a tub togeter well about a mounth ago one of my painted turtles got sick his eyes were all puffed up and he didnt swim just sit at the bottom of the tub hes still recovering so hes in a sepreate container for now well once i seperated them i noticed my other painted turtle was basking alot and ithought maybe it was beacuse he missed the other turtle cuz from the basking spot you can see the container witch the other turtle is being kept but he never leaves the basking spot and everyonce in awile i set him the water he swims fine but his skin is really flaky and his shell looks good though.
