musk turtles may be frightened or disturbed, because musk turtles will quickly release a foul liquid after being attacked, but most of the artificially bred ones will not secrete this liquid, and they will rarely stink. To solve the problem of smelly musk turtles, first of all, they can not secrete liquid, usually can ensure that the surrounding environment is quiet, when changing water, the action is lighter, and do not often pick them up to observe, which may reduce their fear. It is
also possible that the water quality is too poor. If the water is not changed for a long time, there will be too much food residue and feces in the water, and the water will become smelly. Musk turtles living in this kind of water for a long time will naturally become smelly. Breeders can change water in time, clean up food residues after each feeding, and then install a circulating filtration system to ensure clean water quality.
do musk turtles like? Musk turtles do not have too high requirements for water. Breeders can use tap water to raise them. Before using them, they need to expose tap water to the sun for 2-3 days, and then use it for musk turtles. The musk turtle's water quality can be kept neutral, and they do not need special acidity and alkalinity. Usually, it is better to change 2-3 times a week, and the amount of water changed each time should be controlled at one third of the total water volume. If conditions permit, a circulating filtration system can be installed to ensure clean water quality.
