The size of the small turtle is not appropriate, and the water depth is generally more than the turtle shell, so as to ensure that it can breathe when it looks up. It should be noted that with the growth of turtles, the depth of water can also be improved, especially for deep water turtles, you can fill the turtle tank with water, but to provide a high platform, but also to prepare a sun shield, so that it can bask in the back, but not always exposed to the sun.
1, early water: before changing the water for the small turtle, must be early water. There are many ways to trap water, but the purpose is the same, that is, to remove chlorine in water, the simplest way is to put water in a sunny place to dry, you can also aerate inside to remove chlorine.
2. Pay attention to the water temperature: You must pay attention to the water temperature when changing the water. The temperature of the new water should be consistent with that of the old water. If the temperature difference is relatively large, the tortoise will feel uncomfortable and may even catch a cold. If the situation is serious, it will develop into pneumonia. Once it becomes pneumonia, it will be very difficult to cure it.
3. The amount of water to be changed: The water to be changed is usually after the small turtle is excreted. Because the total amount of water in the feeding container is not much, the speed of its excrement spoiling the water is particularly fast. It is best to change all the water, at least half of it, so as to ensure the cleanliness and sanitation of the water body.
