I have 29 gallon Salt water tank that im thinking of converting so I can get me a DBT hatchling. Im worried about how high the salt level can be for the DBT. Has anybody ever done this before? I read for my protien skimmer to keep working the salinity has to be at 1.019, has any body ever kept a DBT at that high a gravity level, or whats the highest anybody has kept hatchlings at. How about the bacteria in the filters, will they be alright for the turtle. If anybody has done this before or has any suggestions or comments please reply. Thank you.
