with mineral water? Tortoises can be raised with mineral water. Mineral water is generally not polluted, will not cause harm to turtles, but it is best to pay attention to the temperature, at least to use room temperature water, the temperature is too low. Turtles are usually raised with tap water, which is more convenient and clean, but because there will be residual chlorine, it is necessary to let the chlorine in the water volatilize before it can be used to raise turtles.
for the tortoise 1. Frequency of changing the water: It usually takes three days to change the water for the tortoise, but if it is summer, the water quality deteriorates quickly and needs to be changed every day. If it is shallow water hibernation in winter, it is better to change the water once every seven days to keep the water clean and sanitary. The time to change the water is usually after feeding, so it is easy to clean up.
2. Amount of water: If you use a larger container to raise turtles, there will be more water inside, and you can change half of it. Generally, all the small tanks need to be replaced, otherwise the water quality is difficult to maintain. There is no need to worry that changes in water quality will stimulate turtles, as long as the temperature is consistent, it will not have much impact.
3. Precautions: When changing the water for the tortoise, you'd better pay attention to cleaning it. Because turtles eat and excrete in the water, there are many dirty things inside, so they can be cleaned up by changing the water to keep the environment clean and hygienic, which is also helpful to the health of turtles.
