Musk turtles and yellow-eared turtles be raised together, because their requirements for the environment are relatively consistent. They are all deep-water turtles, and they like to live in deep water when they are adults, and their requirements for water level are relatively similar. Their requirements for water temperature are similar, especially the yellow-eared turtle has a wide range of adaptation to water temperature, and can live in the water temperature between 20-30 ℃. In addition, their requirements for water quality are not strict. Musk turtles live in swamps or silt in the wild. Yellow-eared turtles can eat and pull, which seriously pollutes water quality. Both of them have low requirements for water quality and are suitable for polyculture together.
2. What should be paid attention to in polyculture of musk turtles1. Space: Musk turtles have high activity. If breeders want to polyculture them with other turtles, they should prepare a larger container for them, so as to ensure sufficient space for their activities.
2. Feeding: Musk turtles are carnivorous turtles. If breeders put them together with other turtles, it is best to feed them separately, so as to avoid fighting between them because of competing for food.
3. Water quality: Although musk turtles do not have high requirements for water quality, if they want to be well raised, they should pay attention to the cleanliness of water quality. If the breeder has the conditions, he can install a circulating filtration system to ensure clean water quality.
