The round Australian turtle is a kind of terrapin. If they are kept at home, they need to be kept in water. They cannot be kept dry. The environment in which they grow cannot be particularly dry. However, the round turtle is not a deep water turtle, which means that they are not suitable for living in very deep water environment. Specifically, in different growth stages, they have different requirements for water level.
When the turtle is in the juvenile stage, it is more sensitive to the environment. Therefore, the water level at this time can not be too high, to use shallow water to raise. Generally speaking, just over its back can be, the water can not be too deep, otherwise they are prone to choking or drowning phenomenon, and they swim to the surface of the water when it is more difficult. After they have grown a little bigger, they can let the water in a little deeper, but not too deep, twice the height of their back or a little more than part of their back shell, but not too much.
As mentioned above, the round turtle is not a deep water turtle and is not suitable for living in deep water. Although the water can be deep enough after they grow up, it is better not to exceed twice the height of their back, which needs to be controlled in the process of breeding. Moreover, they can't live in such deep water all the time, they need to bask in the sun. Therefore, a sunning table can be placed in the water, so that they do not have to be taken out of the container every time, they can climb to the table by themselves, which is more convenient.
