2. Water temperature: To ensure the survival rate of snapping turtles, it is necessary to keep the water temperature environment stable. The scientific regulation of water temperature directly affects the weight gain and survival rate of adult turtle culture. Under the long-term condition of 65438-20 degrees, the growth rate of snapping turtle is several times slower than the optimal growth water temperature of 30-3 1. Therefore, the water temperature for raising soft-shelled turtle should be kept between 30-3 1. On the other hand, when the turtle pond that is changing water or exposed to the outside world happens to encounter bad weather such as heavy rain or sudden temperature change, preventive measures should be taken in time to avoid water temperature fluctuation greater than 2 degrees.
3. Water quality: Crocodile turtles like to live in a clean water environment. Therefore, attention should be paid to replacing fresh water during the feeding process. To use tap water that has been dry for more than 2 days, it is recommended to change the water once every two to three days. You only need to change a part at a time, and you don't need to change the water in the whole tank unless the water and the periphery of the tank are dirty. In this way, snapping turtles who change water will not get white eye disease and will not rot their nails. If it is too troublesome, a filter with nitrifying bacteria can be used, which can provide a relatively stable water quality environment for soft-shelled turtles. Change more water in summer.
Although snapping turtles have strong adaptability, we should pay attention to the feeding methods to make snapping turtles live a healthy life.
