Among them, the crocodile turtle is the largest, and its body length is about 60-70 cm in adulthood. Therefore, they need a container about 120-180 cm to move normally. Small snapping turtles are smaller in size, and their body length is mostly about 30-40 cm in adulthood. Therefore, breeders only need to prepare a tank of 60-90 cm for them.

Although crocodile turtles have high requirements on the size of containers, they do not have high requirements on the material of containers. As long as the surrounding water temperature and water quality are comfortable, they can survive well. If breeders don't consider ornamental, they can raise in plastic pots and storage boxes. If breeders consider ornamental, they can use glass jars to breed. Breeding in glass jar can not only enhance the ornamental value, but also observe the change of water quality more conveniently.
