The Ambo box turtle is a semi-water turtle, and it is one of the semi-water turtles that is more dependent on water. Semi-water turtle is a kind of turtle living in wetlands, with semi-webbed or no webbed toes, can live near land water, but can not live in deep water for a long time. From the point of view of shape characteristics, Ambu box turtle also belongs to a more typical semi-water turtle.
It prefers to live in water, especially when it is young, and must live in an environment with water. But its water is similar to other semi-water turtles, not good, so the water level can not be too deep, otherwise it may cause drowning.
Although the Ambu box turtle is a semi-water turtle, in fact its water is not very good. Therefore, the water level should not be too deep when setting up the water area, generally speaking, the water can not pass the back of the turtle. If the water level is too deep, it is easy to drown, and if the water level is too shallow, it will burst back, which is not conducive to its healthy growth. At the same time, it should be noted that the water quality should be kept clean at all times. It is recommended to change the water once or twice a week, each time changing one third to one quarter of the water.
