The yellow-eared turtle is a pet turtle that can be kept at home. They belong to deep water turtles and need to live in deeper water, because most of their life activities are carried out in the water. Therefore, if the turtle is bred, it can not be dry raised, and it is better not to expose their back shell to space for a long time, which is harmful to their health. Generally speaking, at least let the water level above their back shell, more than part of their back shell is more appropriate. Of course, there is no need to keep them in too deep water, otherwise it will be more troublesome to take them out of the container.
In addition, in the process of aquaculture, attention should be paid to maintaining water quality, so regular water exchange is more necessary. When changing water, we should also pay attention to controlling the water level, leaving part of the old water, and then changing part of the new water, the water level can not be too low.
As mentioned above, the yellow-eared turtle is a kind of deep-water turtle, which needs water to raise, and the water level should not be too low. As a general rule, keep the water level at least at the level of their back shells. More than that is also possible, keeping the water level at twice the level of their shells, so that they will be more suitable for various life activities in the water. Of course, the water does not need to be too deep, otherwise it is more troublesome to change water at ordinary times. In addition, it should be noted that if deep water is used, it is better to place a drying table in the container so that yellow-eared turtles can climb up more easily.
