    I have raised Brazilian turtles for more than ten years before, but I have not been exposed to the stone money you mentioned, but I know that Brazilian turtles are shallow water turtles, they can't be placed in a fish tank with deep water, they will be drowned, even if they are not drowned, they will be very tired, and they must surface when they ventilate, so all Brazilian turtles must be raised on an amphibious platform, with stones to climb up and bask in the sun, and water to swim in, so that it works.

    I probably searched for stone money on the Internet, and it doesn't seem to be raised in a fish tank? It must also be a shallow water turtle species, right? It doesn't seem right for the landlord to raise it like this, right?

    To use a fish tank to breed OK, the bird market has a fish tank dedicated to raising turtles, there is a platform in the fish tank for turtles to climb up and dry their backs, do not use fish tanks to raise, Brazilian turtles do not bask in the sun for a long time in the water is easy to get a variety of diseases, such as eye disease is caused by unclean water quality for a long time, and it is not easy to be good, my turtle has had it, most of them died, there is one who survived, and it is easy to choke to death, anyway, as long as it is not authentic, the water turtle must not be directly put into the water to raise, remember!

    This situation is generally fine. In fact, the turtle must not only be placed in the water, but must have a place where it can be on land. Because the turtle actually only needs to get in the water when it is drinking and eating. My friend's tortoises are all stocked in the toilet.

    If the water temperature is low for your turtle, it may be hibernating. Is there a phenomenon of floating on the water? Open your mouth?

    It is advisable to give him a heating rod for the winter. Relatively safe. Before winter, you must give the turtle and turtle nutrition, otherwise I am afraid that I will not be able to wake up if my physical strength is exhausted after winter.

    However, if the turtle is relatively large, it is not necessary to spend the winter naturally. My family's 2 turtles are 6cm big and 5cm small, and I didn't use a heating rod for the winter last year, and I spent the winter safely, but I lost a lot of weight.
