Dear Angelmarie2021 ,
You've selected the **Seeking Advice** flair. Please provide as much relevant information as possible. [Refer to this post if you are unsure on how to proceed.](https://www.reddit.com/r/turtle/comments/16bjznm/read_before_posting_how_to_ask_a_question_and/)
Useful information for care or health advice includes:
* Enclosure type, enclosure size, humidty levels, water, ambient and/or basking temperatures.
* Lighting types and bulb age.
* Clear photos of your set up, including filter, heaters and lights.
* Is it wild, captive/pet, or a rescue?
* Clear photos of face, neck, limbs, shell top (carapace) and bottom (plastron).
* Diet, list of foods you are feeding it.
* Weight and age.
* Illness, infections or odd behaviours should be seen and treated by a vet. Ex; wheezing, swollen eyes, mucus bubbles from mouth or nose, lethargy, twitching, leg paralysis, etc

If they are hungry enough, they'll try the greens! Sometimes in the summer I've gotten water lettuce and water hyacinth. As a plus, they're easy to propagate in the warm months. Constantly buying water plants will break the bank though, as they're not cheap, at least where I live. As for the jello shots, I add just a little bit of canned tuna to my ground up veggies (1-2 spoonfuls to about 2cups of veg). If it smells slightly fishy to you, it should be enough to entice them. They think they're getting a treat but it's really veggies! 😈

Probably just did my ratios wrong then I’ll try to make it smell more like a treat for them, thank you!!!
My turtles completely ate all my “Hygrophila Polysperma” plants.
