A good environment is particularly important to raise Brazilian tortoises well. In order for it to move, it needs to prepare a slightly larger turtle jar, so that it will feel at ease and will not want to climb out. In addition, because it is a water turtle, it is necessary to put a proper amount of water in the turtle tank. If there is no water, the turtle may dehydrate and die.

Brazilian tortoises have low requirements for environment, and they can survive in the water temperature between 3-43 ℃. But the most suitable temperature for their growth is between 20 and 30 ℃. During artificial rearing, the water temperature can be kept between 20-30 ℃. If the temperature is too low, it will affect its activity and appetite, causing it not to eat.

Brazilian tortoises can tolerate poor water quality, but if they want to grow better, it is best to change water frequently to ensure clean water quality. If conditions permit, you can change water 1-2 times a week, and the amount of water changed each time should be controlled at half of the total amount of water. If the water quality is not good, Brazilian tortoises are prone to skin rot and other diseases.

Although Brazilian tortoises live in water for a long time, they also like to bask in the sun. Breeders can build an amphibious environment for them when breeding, so that they can freely choose where to live.
