Flame turtles cannot be raised dry. Flame tortoises are aquatic tortoises, which are mainly distributed in North America. Wild flame tortoises that live naturally generally live in lakes, reservoirs, rivers, ponds and other places. They have strong vitality, strong ability to adapt to the environment, and strong ability to resist cold and heat. Moreover, this turtle has low requirements for its living environment, so long as there is enough water and food in the living place, it can live well. When artificial breeding, we should pay attention to providing a wide living environment as much as possible, because this turtle is lively and active, likes to move around, and needs a larger living space.

Flame turtles can be raised in fresh water. They themselves live in lakes, rivers and other fresh water places, and their vitality is tenacious, and they can adapt to various bad living environments. For this kind of turtle, as long as there is enough water and food, it can live well.

They can live normally at the water temperature of 23-28 ℃, and like to live at the water temperature of about 25 ℃. If the water temperature is lower than 18 ℃, they will stop eating and prepare to enter hibernation. Therefore, some heating devices, such as heating rods or lamps, should be installed in the breeding tank. Moreover, the flame turtle grows faster and has a large size, so it is necessary to choose a large breeding tank when breeding. They don't have high requirements for water quality, but they should also ensure regular water change, keep the water quality clean, and the water level should not exceed their turtle shells.
