Can crocodile turtle be raised in deep water fish tank, and can it be raised together with fish

Crocodile turtles can be raised in deep water or in deep water fish tanks. They all live in deep water when they are in the wild, and their swimming ability and physical strength are relatively strong, which is more suitable for activities in deep water. In addition, living in deep water is also beneficial to the development of their carapace. However, when breeders choose to use fish tanks to breed, they should pay attention to the width. They are larger in adulthood, and breeders need to prepare a larger fish tank for them to live normally.

1. Can crocodile turtles be raised in deep water fish tanks

Crocodile turtles may be raised in deep water in fish tanks, because they like to move in deep water, and their physical strength and water quality are better. In addition, survival in deep water can also make their carapace develop better. So they can be cultured in deep water in fish tanks. However, most fish tanks are rectangular, and crocodile turtles are large in size as adults. Ordinary rectangular fish tanks can make them unable to turn around smoothly. When choosing fish tanks, breeders should use some round or square fish tanks. In addition, young crocodile turtles can't be raised in too deep water, because their physical strength and swimming ability are not yet mature. If they are put in deep water rashly, they may choke and drown.

2. Can crocodile turtles be raised with fish

Crocodile turtles can't be raised with fish. They are fierce and carnivorous turtles. If they are kept together with fish, they may keep attacking fish. Although they are benthic turtles, they don't have much conflict with upper fish, but they breathe with their lungs and need to swim to the water regularly to breathe, so when they swim up, they may also conflict with fish.
