a few days, tortoise changes water 3 days commonly, but had better change water everyday in summer, if winter shallow water hibernates, also want 7 days to change. Turtles spend most of their time in water. If the water quality is not good, it is easy to cause diseases, so it is very important for turtles to change water. And because it eats and drinks in the water, so when changing the water, we should pay attention to cleaning up the dirty things in the jar.
for it 1. Trapped water in advance: The tortoise usually uses tap water to change the water. Although this kind of water is not polluted, after the processing of the waterworks, there will be a small amount of chlorine left in it, which is harmful to its health. Therefore, before changing the water, it is necessary to put the water in a sunny place to dry and let the chlorine volatilize.
2. Water quantity control: Changing water for the turtle is different from changing water for the fish, because the water used for raising the turtle is less, and its excretion is very large, so not only the water should be changed frequently, but also the amount of water should be changed is large. The big turtle tank needs to be changed by half, while the small turtle tank needs to be changed completely. When you change the water, you should also clean up the dirt in the tank, so as to avoid the contamination of the new water.
3. Keep the water temperature: The temperature before and after changing the water should also be controlled. If the temperature difference is too large, the tortoise will be stimulated and even get sick. Therefore, it is better to measure the water temperature in the tank first, and then mix the new water according to this temperature to ensure that the difference between the two is not more than 1 ℃.
