Water is better for pearl turtles, because they belong to water turtles and like to move in water at ordinary times. In addition, their water quality and swimming ability are relatively strong, so water is the best. In addition, when they live in the wild, they all move in rivers, lakes, streams and swamps. It is best to raise pearl turtles in water according to their habits.

Although pearl turtles can be raised in water, under special circumstances, they also need to be raised dry. For example, when you are sick, in order to absorb drugs better, you need to dry them. In addition, they usually have the habit of basking in the sun, so it is best for breeders to prepare a balcony for them, so that they can climb to the shore to bask in the sun at any time.

The pearl turtles do not have high requirements on water quality, and they can survive in weak acid, weak base and neutral water. Breeders do not need to deliberately adjust the pH value of water quality when breeding. Although pearl turtles do not require high water quality, breeders should not use freshly received tap water for breeding, because freshly received tap water contains a large amount of chlorine gas, which will affect the health of pearl turtles if used for a long time. Breeders can expose the tap water just received to the sun for 2 days, so that the chlorine gas in the water can be completely volatilized, and then it can be used again.
