And it comes with a white lid that can be snapped on with the handles? You can get them at walmart for like 10 bucks, I use them as holding tubs for small turtles. Sorry it's just that I hate to see stuff like this, such a beautiful specimen destined to spend her life in a tiny plastic tub. I meen this is like keeping a dinosaur in a 10 gallon tank. Doesnt sound like much fun to me man, but each to his own.

I have been keeping snappers and many other turtles for 10 + years, in all types of aqauriums & cages. I've had nothing but success. I've had this female since she hatched in 1995, and i've always taken good care of her. And, by the way, she has free range of the room, and comes and goes at will. Shes not confined by any means, like so many turtles are. I feel she is comfortable in this enclosure. And no, she wont be in it forever. A large stock tank awaits. Thank you.
