My RES Shellby uses his hiding place to sunbath while he uses his his sunbathing place to hide!

Everyone thinks he's got his own personality.
I personally disagree. He's got his own 'turtle-ality'! *Corny!*. Hahah, it shouldn't matter. Your turtle will do whatever is write for him. I have a turtle I keep in the bathroom and it only comes out when I'm inside...Can't imagine what he'd be like as a human.

Try raising his heat lamp a few inches in his sunbathing/basking spot. It may be too hot for him. You should be able to lay your hand flat beneath it, 2-3 inches from the ground without it being uncomfortable to you. Hope that helps.

You'll have to describe this a bit more... what is its hiding place?
Our job is to offer a good habitat- basking, temps, etc.- with a variety of micro-climates. If we do this well, it will find where it wants to be for different times of its life.
Other than rearranging the tank, I am not sure what the problem is.

Sorry, but it sounds like you got it backwards! He knows what works for him, even though you meant well.

That is good. He shows his personality in a weird way.
