a tank heater ($6)
something to line the tank's floor (not gravel, large marbles maybe?) ($2 a bag)
and a floating reptile rock ($10, petco)

Chinatown should sell turtles. Get 2 of them, turtles are social animals.

Turtles are pretty cool. Right now i have 4 of them. Unfortunately from what i have read they tend to out grow their surroundings fairly quickly and need alot of space to thrive. Something about 10 gallons of water for every inch of turtle

Those are kind of like big lizards or baby alligators are'nt they? Will they sit on your shoulder and stay? Can you take it out of the aquarium without it taking off and never seeing it again? What do they eat? Where can you buy them and for how much? Sorry for all the dumb questions, but just curious.

Ferrets are minimal care, and you can tie them in a knot!
