Can the The turtle can't be kept in the water all the time. The tortoise is a reptile, and it still has to breathe with its lungs. If it is kept in the water all the time, it may not be good for breathing. And many turtles can not adapt to the deep water environment, if they are raised in shallow water, because the water quality is difficult to maintain, so after a period of time, they have to change the water, and they have to take it out during the water change. Usually only some turtles adapted to deep-water environment can soak in water for a long time, but even so, it is better to let them bask in the sun.
of turtles for water? 1. Water temperature: As a poikilothermic animal, turtles have higher requirements for water temperature. Because it likes to soak in water most of the time, if the water temperature is very low, its vitality will decrease, and it does not like to eat. Usually, the temperature should be controlled above 20 C, preferably around 25 C, so that it is more vigorous.
2. Water quality: Because the tortoise has been in the water for a long time, the quality of the water is particularly important. If the water quality is relatively poor, it is easy to cause tortoises to get sick, which is harmful to their health. So change the water every once in a while, change all the water every time, and clean up the dirt in the feeding container at the same time.
3. Water level: Although many turtles can live in deep water in the wild, it is not recommended to use deep water for artificial breeding. The water level is higher than the turtle's back, so it does not need to swim all the time, and it can breathe as soon as it looks up. If it is a deep-water turtle, it can slowly raise the water level to adapt to the deep-water environment.
