Each young turtle should have five liters of water, and the water depth should not exceed the length of the turtle, so that the turtle can support its feet when breathing on the water. A pair of grown Brazilian turtles need at least 100 liters of water. At the same time, they must be made of bricks and stones or buy a terrace so that turtles can bask in their backs. To create an ideal environment.

Matters needing attention are that in order to make the water temperature in the culture tank reach the temperature that the Brazilian turtle likes, the heating rod used in the aquarium should be used, and the equipment and lines should be prevented from being stuck when installing. Large plastic pots, aquariums or large wooden containers covered with plastic cloth can be used as turtle tanks. The tank with drainage holes is the most convenient, because it is easy to change water and clean frequently.

Electric felt can also be placed at the bottom outside the breeding box, and synthetic resin rubber can be padded under the electric felt as insulation material. However, the water temperature should not be higher than the outside temperature (about 25 to 30 degrees Celsius) to avoid the Brazilian tortoise catching cold.
