    Oh I don't know about living in there.. the turtle we had was just one we found in there and immediately dipped out! He went on his way and we haven't seen him since. I really don't want to have any creatures living in the pool.

    my wife thought the turtle would be cool unfortunately, my daughter then decided she wanted to have a snake in the pool as well..mind you, she also wants to be a vampire (15 going on 20..god help me)

    A turtle I could probably live with but I wouldn't want his poo in the water! But a snake... ewwww... makes my skin crawl just thinking about it. We had a small one in the skimmer a couple of years ago and the neighbors ALL heard me screaming!

    I found him in the skimmer and removed him as soon as I found him. Now he's safe in a climate-controlled aquarium with his other buddies.
