The golden-headed turtle belongs to a kind of semi-water turtle, with small foot fins and poor breath holding ability, so if it is kept in the water all the time, it may cause its death. The golden-headed turtle belongs to the semi-water turtle which is more terrestrial, so its water is not strong, and the water level can not be too deep in the process of breeding. Especially for young turtles, swimming ability is not fully formed, but need to live completely in the water, if the water level in the fish tank is relatively deep, it is easy to lead to suffocation, drowning and other conditions, and may also lead to difficulties in turning over. Therefore, if the water level is too deep, it will lead to its death.
The golden-headed turtle needs a sunning table. It needs to be exposed to the sun regularly to promote the synthesis of calcium substances in its body, so as to make itself grow healthily. And if it is kept in a fish tank, a sunning table is necessary. As a semi-aquatic turtle with poor water quality, if the water level in the fish tank is relatively deep, it is easy to cause suffocation, drowning and so on, while the drying table provides a buffer platform for it to breathe or rest, and can also be used to dry its back. Therefore, a sunning table is necessary for the golden turtle.
