We all know that there are many types of turtles. Today, let’s talk about aquatic turtles raised in deep water.

Deep-water breeding: As the name suggests, deep-water turtles definitely refer to aquatic turtles, and do not include semi-aquatic turtles.

What are the deep water turtles?

1. Pig-nosed turtle, 2. Map, 3. Most of the egg turtles, such as razor, musk, tiger, giant, etc. (except egg turtles Mud turtles, such as helmeted egg turtles) 4. Star-spotted turtles, 5. Ozark turtles, 6. Snapping turtles, 7. Yellow heads... too many. It can be said that as long as there is a gradual adaptation process, aquatic turtles can go deep into the water.

Things to note when raising turtles in deep water

Things to note when raising turtles in deep water: 1. Water level, keeping in deep water Is there any requirement for the water level of the turtle? The answer is no. You can decide the water level yourself. The premise is that you must place a place in the container where the turtle can rest and breathe, because the turtle uses its lungs to breathe. Therefore, floating platforms, sunken wood, large rocks, etc. must be placed inside the container, preferably above the water surface.

2. Filtration equipment. If you want to raise turtles in deep water, you can have filtration equipment, otherwise it will be very troublesome to change the water.

3. Except for turtles such as pig-nosed turtles, which naturally live in deep water environments, you can ignore the above mentioned. Therefore, many fish masters will keep a pig-nosed turtle in their fish tank to increase the activity of the fish and at the same time it is not bad for viewing.

4. I would like to add that for turtles in the breeding group, the water level is not recommended to be too high.

Benefits of raising turtles in deep water

1. It can increase the amount of exercise of turtles. When the water is deeper, the turtle's range of activities becomes larger. At the same time, turtles need to ventilate up and down. Increasing the amount of exercise can make the turtles more active. The turtle has a good physique.

2, to increase the ornamental value, we can watch the turtles turn over and swim freely in deep water, and fish for food. Judging from their free and carefree demeanor, they are definitely stronger and more energetic than some turtles raised in shallow water.

Summary:

According to different types of turtles, you can choose different feeding methods reasonably.

Raising turtles is not just about keeping them alive. If you want to raise high-quality turtles, you must pay attention to all aspects. Raising them well and keeping them alive are two different concepts.
