? 1. Reduce the feeding density: The adult size of snapping turtles is relatively large, and the excrement is relatively large. If the breeder wants to make the water clean and refreshing, he must first reduce the feeding density and give the snapping turtles more space to move.
2. Increase the water environment: After reducing the feeding density, the breeder can increase the water environment, because the larger the water environment is, the slower the water quality deteriorates. Moreover, snapping turtles are suitable for deep water breeding, and breeders can control the water level at 2-3 times the height of the carapace.
3. Reduce the feeding frequency: Food residues and feces are the main reasons for the deterioration of water quality. If the water quality deteriorates rapidly, the breeder needs to feed them regularly and quantitatively. Each feeding can be finished within 5-10 minutes, reducing the production of food residues, which can ensure clean water quality.
4. Add filtration equipment: Breeders can install circulating filtration systems, plant some aquatic plants, and raise some scavengers. As long as the nitrifying bacteria are well cultured in the early stage, the water quality can be stable.
? The water temperature that the crocodile turtle likes is 28-31 ℃, but it can only reach such a high temperature in summer in our country, so the breeder had better install a heating rod in the container to ensure the water temperature is stable.
