Long time no see yall!

Our birds are doing great, but I am really stumped on a houseplant issue.

I was using Serpa Design’s list of toxic and non toxic riparium plants to buy plants to grow in the back of my tank, and it listed turtle vine as non toxic.

They didn’t have smaller plants at the store so I went and got a big one and split it up throughout the house - but when I did more research on it to understand its care requirements better, I found that some places list it as toxic, while other places list it as a dietary supplement for reptiles, rabbits, and parrots!

Now I have a headache and a bunch of succulents I might need to throw out. Anyone here got any experience with this one?

Thanks!
