Money turtles like warmth and fear cold, and naturally growing money turtles hibernate every year. Therefore, when breeding this kind of turtle, a heating rod can be placed in the breeding tank to maintain the appropriate and stable water temperature. The water temperature preferred by young turtles is 30-32 C. The water temperature preferred by adult money turtles is 28-30 degrees Celsius.

They like to eat meat, especially live baits such as freshwater shrimp, mealworms, animal liver and small fish. Although this kind of feed has very high nutritional value, it is very easy to carry pathogens, so we must ensure the safety and health of the bait when feeding. It is forbidden to feed spoiled and indigestible baits. The frequency of feeding is once or twice a day, and the amount of feeding depends on the weight of the turtle, which is about 5% -10% of the total weight of the turtle.
