red eared slider: substrate

[cellardoor27]

im making their home half land half water....I have a soil mixture that I wanted to use, but I can't really find much about anything.

The mixture is: peat moss/vermiculite/pearlite/some type of bacteria (fungus) for plant/root growth ( i dont know the name of hand atm)...its really good for plants...but im not sure if its good for my turtles!


any help/ideas/theories would be good because im in the process of making it right now and my turtles are chillen in their tiny tank that I want them out of asap!

thank you!

i dont know too much about them, they are aquatic.but my 3 RES's tank is a third filled with water, with gravel on the bottom, a plant and gravel for substrate.
goodluck!!!
