New Turtle Owner

Hi,

I recently became the proud owner of 2 baby red-eared sliders because someone abandoned them. However, I haven't the slightest clue of how to take care of them. If anyone can tell me what essentials I need for the tank, what the best food to feed them is, and any other tips and tricks, that would be great!

Thank you!

Although I don't have them as pets or have any experience with them I found these two articles from The Spruce Pets (I personally love their articles). How to Care for Pet Red-Eared Slider Turtles and How to Set Up a Tank for a Red-Eared Slider Turtle and What Do Red-Eared Slider Turtles Eat?. If you want more information just search The Spruce Pets and tap on the search button (on the website) and write a red-eared slider (they gave a lot of articles about them. That was very nice of you to rescue them.

Gus - he’s a rescue!
How much water should I be giving my bearded dragon? He will only drink from a dropper when I drop on his nose and I’m not sure if I should give it to him until he won’t drink anymore? Or should I stop after he’s had a certain amount?
Just want to check that if my beardie is ok I managed to get a video of him yawning today and screenshot him with his mouth open does he have mouth rot??? He is eating and drinking normally btw, the discoloration on his left of the mouth has been there for a month but the discoloration on his right side is new
