Bob, I like that picture too (not to mention the actual animal – what a beauty!). If I remember my little friends correctly, it's a Green Turtle (Chelonia mydas)a few months old or so. A "Green" would be my personal recommendation for the tank as it's the archetypical (sp?) sea turtle. A baby turtle is the only one that would fit the tank as a mature Green weighs in at around 300 lbs...

Thanks to Morgan, Tiny Snapshots is up and running again with "Tiny Järvafält" as the latest addition – Go have a look and tell me what you think.
"We knew the world would not be the same. A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent.
I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita. Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says,
'Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.'
I suppose we all thought that, one way or another." /Robert Oppenheimer on witnessing the first thermonuclear detonation in history.
