Jason, I feed all my adults seperate from their tanks. I feed them all mostlt smelt. It might take a few days for her to start eating. I had a large female WC (over 9″) that refused to eat for over a week and a half. Then suddenly she started taking small bites here and there. Now she eats like a pig. What temperature is the water? Are you putting the food into the pond or trying to feed outside the pond. Do you have other terrapins? If so I would put them in with her when you are trying to feed her. Some times they will start eating if they see others doing the same. As for the salt. I use rock salt and put 4 cups for every 100 gallons. I know several other members use instant ocean, I don’t know how much they put in the water. By the way sould like she has a lot of space in the pond. I wish I could have that much water for my turtles. They are confind to 110 tubs.
