DIAMONDS

Diamond is the hardest mineral on Earth and this,combined with its exceptional lusture and brillant fire,has made it the most highly prized gem. Pure,colorless diamond is the most popular but other varities-from yellow and brown to green,blue,pink,red, grey and black are also found,depending on the impurities present.Because of the uniform arrangement of their constituent carbon atoms,diamond crystals are well formed-usually octahedral with round edges and slightly convex faces.

4c's FOUR CHARACTERISTICS THAT DETERMINE THE QUALITY AND VALUE OF A DIAMOND

CUT

The way a diomand is cut and polished is vital.It is the precision and delicacy of the cut that dictates the maximum amount of light the diamond will refract and reflect.The better is has been cut ,the greater will be its brilliance,sparkle and fire.When a diamond is cut to good proportions,light is internally reflected from one facet to another and then dispersed through the crown,or top of the diamond. So a well cut diamond is comprised of facets with the correct angles which are perfectly placed to maximize the diamond's brilliance.

There are many shapes and sizes of diamonds

Brilliant Marquise Oval Pear Heart Emerald Square

COLOUR

Most diamonds look colorless but there are many subtle shade differences and the closer a diamond is to having no color the more valuable it becomes.Why does the color vary? Well in the chaos of extreme temperature and pressure that first created diamonds traces of elements such as nitrogen and boron could have been incorporated into the diamond's atomic structure. It is these traces that give a diamond its color or lack of it.Diamonds with no hint of color at all are very rare.Red,pink and blue are the most prized but virtually all colors are possible.

Different colour varieties by are caused by minute traces of other minerals

Dark green colour due to exposure to radioactive radium

Yellowish Green coloured diamond

Pink-Red coloured diamond

Subtle Grey-Green coloured diamond

Pinkish-Brown coloured diamond

CLARITY

Thanks to nature every diamond is unique.Each one possesses its own individuality.This could be due to minute traces of other minerals trapped during the crystallizition process.The number,color,nature,size and position of any inclusions determine the clarity of a diamond. The fewer the inclusions,the rarer it will be graded and the more light it will reflect making it more valuable.Since it is very rare to find a diamond that has no inclusions the closer to flawless it is the greater the value.

CARAT WEIGHT

The last of the 4c's is carat weight is the simplest of its characteristices to measure.The carat is a unit of weight which derives from the carob seed.The carat is a standard metric weight of 0.2 grams or 1/142 of a standard ounce.Each carat is divided into 100 points.For eg,a quarter of a carat is 25 points,written as 0.25;a half a carat is 50 points written as 0.50 and so on.It is easy to weigh an unmounted diamond but once it is in a setting it is only possible to estimate its weight by using special gauges and formulae. Remember carat

A Little Information on Diamond Back Terrapins

A Little Information on Diamond Back Terrapins

Note: This is not a turtle for beginners as the setup requiresconsiderable effort.

What a beautiful turtle you must have!I have never had a diamond back myself, but here is what I know:

* Diamond backs live usually in brackish water, like coastal marshes, tidal flats, and such. They are found exclusively in estuaries, though I'm sure the odd one will venture quite far up stream

- on occassion. There are some interesting studies out there that show that the greatest numbers of terrapins are found where the salinity is above 50% sea water (or 17ppt), as that is where the greatest volume of their foods of choice are found.

* Males get about 10-14cm, females 15-23cm--that is 4-6 inches for males and 6-10inches for females. Which makes it a pleasantly small turtle. You won't need a 100 gallon tank in a few years.

* Diamondbacks are almost completely carnivorous. In the wild they are scavengers but will not pass up a live morsel. The following has been found to be eaten by wild animals: snails, crabs, shells, and some other marine animals. Captives can be fed: chopped fish, crabs, snails, oysters, clams, insects, marine annelids, and some beef.

-- I would also try earthworms and pellets; it would make your life easier, if the turtle took those at least occasionally.

* Occurs along the all along the Atlantic coast from Cape Cod to Texas and the Florida Keys. There are 7 subscpecies.

* Latin name is Malaclemys.

* I got most of this information from: "Turtles of the World" by carl H. Ernst, ISBN 1-56098-212-8

Setup: (Thank you Jared Purdy for this information!) If you are going to be keeping terrapins, you must adopt a "husbandry" attitude that leans strongly towards recreating (as closely as possible) the water conditions that are natural to this species. That means you should purchase a hydrometer, a cylinder to view the hydrometer, and marine salt from a fish store. Changes in PH, KH and salinity have a considerable affect on this animal. The most common affects are serious dermal and shell infections. This species has adapted to a high saline environment, which is also characterized by a high PH (8.2~) and a high KH (hard water - mineral rich, like marine water). Changing these characteristics affects osmotic pressure within the species and can result in infections. Cleanliness is next to Godliness with diamond backs - filtration is a must!

(Thank you Lori)

I put salt in all my tanks but my diamondbacks have a bit more. When they are really young I only put a tiny amount because in nature that is the way they do it. Once they get older I increase the amount of salt I use but what you have to remember is that they drink fresh water so you have to give them clean fresh water to drink everyday.

Here is a bit more:

Check out the Audubon Guide on North American Reptiles and Amphibiansfor information on species, sub-species, distribution, breeding, and such. Theyhave a good article which is too long for me to type in. You should also be ableto find more info on your state reptile at the local library. Here is a summary with focus on suggested husbandry. My additional source is "Turtles ofthe World" by Carl H. Ernst.

Females grow to 10 inches, males to 6 inches.Natural habitat is brackisch water, coastal marshes, tidal flats, coves,estuaries, and lagoons behind barrier beaches.

==> Don't be shy about adding a bit of salt to the water as suggested in the car sheet. It will help keep the turtle healthy, and he won't mind. Try 1 teaspoon per gallon of water.

Turtle will hibernate in the North, not in the South.

==> You don't have to hibernate him.

==> Hardy animal, will tolerate relatively wide spectrum of environments.

==> Use a generic setup as described in care sheet. It will be fine. Probably doesn't need to be kept as warm as a slider. Don't let temperature of water drop below 70F in average. You can keep him outdoors in summer. He'd like that.

Food: probably a scavenger but also likes live food in wild. Found in stomach have been snails, fiddler and other crabs, marineanelids, and a bit of marsh plants, clam leftovers. Captives canbe fed on chopped fish, crabs, snails, oysters, clams, insects, marine annelids, and a little lean beef. Don't expect your turtleto eat veggies, but try to give him some dry food (since in the wild,he does accidentially ingest plants and algae for a balanced diet).I would also not feed beef but cat/dog food once a week for the vitamins.Diamondbacks can handle the salt in ocean fish and crabs. Feed snailsand shrimp with the shell.
