Grass turtles can't be raised in deep water in a fish tank. Although this kind of turtle is a freshwater turtle, it can live in the water, but its water quality is particularly poor. If they are kept in deep water in a fish tank, they can easily drown. Grass turtles don't have as well developed webbed feet as other terrapins, so they are not suitable for living in deeper water. In their living environment, the water must be shallow, and they need to put a drying table in the water for them to rest.

grass tortoises be raised in deep water in fish tanks?

Grass tortoises are not suitable for raising in deep water in fish tanks because their webbed feet are not well developed. They belong to a kind of freshwater turtle, and it is recommended to raise them in a special turtle tank. Although this is also a terrapin, it is very different from other terrapins, and its webbed feet are not well developed. If the water is too deep, they are likely to drown in the deep water. When

raising grass turtles, you must use a turtle tank instead of a fish tank with a deep water level. Most turtles need to bask in the sun, so the tank needs land, because the fish tank is mainly for fish farming, so it generally does not have the conditions of land, not suitable for turtle breeding.

2. what kind of environment

is suitable for grass turtles to live in? In the environment where grass turtles live, there must be water, and the water should not be too deep. In addition, there is a need for land and light. The water level is relatively shallow, mainly because their flippers are not well developed and they are only suitable for living in shallow water. The land mainly provides them with a place to rest. Grass tortoises, like other tortoises, prefer to bask in the sun, so land is essential. Light can help them absorb calcium to a certain extent, and it can also play a role in sterilization.
