Is brocade turtle a deep-water turtle? How much water depth is appropriate

It's a breeding brocade turtle. You need to pay attention to the water level. Wild brocade turtles live at the bottom of streams, rivers and other waters. Generally speaking, they are relatively deep, so brocade turtles can be regarded as a kind of deep-water turtles. When raising them in captivity, they can also be raised in deep water. However, brocade turtles should not be cultured in too deep water when they are relatively young. Some problems need to be paid attention to during deep-water aquaculture. For example, when the water is too deep, a sun terrace needs to be prepared for them to climb up and rest. 1、 Is brocade turtle a deep-water turtle? Brocade turtle can be raised in captivity and is more popular with farmers. Wild brocade turtles will live at the bottom of streams, rivers and other waters, and they spend a long time at the bottom of the water. Generally speaking, they can live in deep water, and their water properties are good, so they can be regarded as a kind of deep-water turtles. When they are raised in captivity, they can also live in deep water. However, at the young turtle stage, their water properties are not particularly good, so they should not be cultured in too deep water.

Even though the brocade turtle can be raised in deep water after adulthood, some problems need to be paid attention to. For example, brocade turtles can't be in the water all the time. Wild brocade turtles often come ashore for sunbathing. The same is true in artificial breeding. They need to bask in the sun regularly. Therefore, in the process of deep-water aquaculture, it is also necessary to prepare a drying table in advance for them to climb up and bask in the sun. 2、 The water depth of brocade turtles is appropriate. As mentioned above, raising brocade turtles artificially can make them live in deep water. Specifically, the water level can be maintained at about three or four times the height of their back shell, and it does not need to be too deep. Therefore, the water level needs to be adjusted with the height of their back shell. If you feel troublesome, you can keep the water level at about 20cm, and the water level at this height will not cause harm to the brocade turtle. A special period is the young turtle stage. At this time, you can raise it with slightly shallower water, and the water level can be about 5cm. In addition, when the newly bought brocade turtle is in the adaptation period, it's best not to let the water level be too high. (JinGuiShiShenShuiGuiMa,ShuiShenDuoShaoGeKuo)
