Grass turtles may not like to be in the water because they have to bask in the sun. Although the grass turtle is a freshwater turtle, the time spent in the water is not particularly long, usually half of the time in the water and half of the time on land. It may also be because the water is too deep. Grass turtles don't like places where the water is deep or turbulent, which can easily cause them to drown. For this reason, it is necessary to rearrange the turtle tank, reduce the water depth appropriately, and avoid turbulent water flow in the tank.
Grass tortoise does not like what reason is in water, how to raise grow well

1. what is the reason why

grass turtles do not like to be in the water? Generally, there are two situations in which grass turtles do not like to be in the water. The first situation is that they are basking in the sun. Exposure to the sun can effectively promote the absorption of calcium in the body of grass turtles and contribute to their healthy growth. This situation can not be dealt with, let them bask in the sun on their own.

The second situation is that the water in the turtle tank is too deep. Although the grass turtle is also a freshwater turtle, it is different from other freshwater turtles. The water they live in must be shallow. If the water is too deep, they will have difficulty breathing. In addition, if the water is polluted, they do not like to be in the water. It is also important to keep the water clean and tidy during the feeding process. If this is the case, it is necessary to lower the water depth appropriately and change the water frequently to keep the water clean.

2. How to raise grass turtles to grow well

? The water temperature that grass turtles like is 25-30 C. In this temperature range, they will absorb nutrients more quickly, which will make them grow better. The water quality for raising them must be free of any pollution. Now many families use tap water to raise them, but there are many toxic substances in tap water. It is better to use it after aeration and chlorine removal. Grass tortoises also like to bask in the sun. They need to bask in the sun every day. Basking in the sun can promote their absorption of calcium and make their backs more colorful. So prepare a drying table for them so that they can dry their backs.
