Round Australian turtles can't be raised in cold water, because the temperature in their origin is relatively high, so they have higher requirements for water temperature, and they need a water temperature between 28-30 ℃ to survive. If they are raised in cold water, they will have problems such as decreased activity, loss of appetite, decreased immunity and resistance. If they are raised in cold water for a long time, their physique and health will be affected, so they cannot be raised in cold water.
Can round Australian turtle be raised in cold water or deep water 1. Can round Australian turtles be raised in cold water

Round Australian turtles cannot be raised in cold water because they are not cold water turtles, their origin is tropical areas such as Australia, and they like warmth and fear cold. Therefore, the requirements for water temperature are relatively high, and breeders need to control the water temperature between 28-30 ℃ before they can live normally. If they are raised in cold water, they will not only have loss of appetite and activity, but also have problems such as decreased immunity and resistance. Over time, their growth and health will be greatly affected. If the water temperature is lower than 15 ℃, they will go into hibernation, so it is best to control the water temperature between 28-30 ℃.

2. Can the tortoise be raised in deep water

The young tortoise can't be raised in deep water. They are sensitive to environmental changes in their infancy, and their physical strength is weak, so they can't live normally in deep water, so the water level is controlled below the carapace in their infancy. As adults, their physical strength will be stronger, and their body size will become bigger, and the water level they can adapt to will be higher. Breeders can keep the water level 2-3 times the height of their carapace. In addition to the water level, the breeder can also build a balcony for them in the container, so that they have a place to rest and bask in the sun.
