O.k. the two new turtles got dropped off tonight! Both are R.E.S.
One is very small. Maybe an inch or two. The other is larger, the size of a small hamburger or so. I think the larger one is a male and the smaller one is just too small to tell anything. They have some obvious but minor fungus on them, and their tank/filters/rocks were just filthy.
Pic of tank and turtles when they got here (Gross!!!):

We put them in a 40 tank with clean water and basking spot with lights. They jumped in right away.

We are gonna give them salt baths a few times and keep them here awhile, then I will start looking for new homes. Thanks for looking!
