Map turtle is a common turtle species, in the market is relatively common. They originated in the United States and were later introduced into China. The map turtle is a kind of turtle that is easy to raise, and their survival rate is relatively high when they are raised, because their adaptability to the environment is good. However, there are also some problems that need to be paid attention to when farming. Especially water quality, map turtles are relatively sensitive to water quality, if the water is dirty, it will lead to a large number of bacterial reproduction, endangering the health of map turtles. Therefore, it is better to equip the container with a better water circulation system, or pay attention to changing water to ensure clean water quality.
In addition, when the map turtle is relatively small, it will be more sensitive to the surrounding environment, if the environment is not suitable, they are more likely to get sick, and sometimes even die, so in the young turtle stage need to pay more attention.

When breeding the map turtle, you need to pay attention to the water temperature. The water temperature is suitable, which will also help the growth of map turtles. Generally speaking, the most suitable temperature is between 26-28 degrees, if there is no condition to maintain in this range, it can also be between 20-30 degrees, which will not have a great impact on their growth status. If the water temperature is too low at ordinary times, it can also be adjusted appropriately with heating rods. However, hibernation is a special period in their growth process, when the water temperature can not be too high.
