The cute appearance of pig-nosed turtles is loved by many turtle owners, of course, their biggest feature is a pair of noses similar to pigs' noses. And before we take it home, we should think about how to raise the pig-nosed turtle so that we don't have to be at a loss and don't know how to raise it after we buy it.
1.Disinfect the tank first, soak it in a high acid acid (an appropriate amount) for an hour, and clean it with a clean, chemical-free cleaning cloth.
2.There are usually two kinds of water, one is tap water and the other is well water. If it is tap water, exposure to the sun for two days will volatilize some of the hardness components in the water; In the case of well water, the water can be recycled directly.
It is recommended to circulate for a week, empty tank water circulation, and the water temperature is optimal at 28 degrees, which is conducive to the growth of nitrifying bacteria (something good for water purification), and is also suitable for the living temperature of pig nose. (Don't remember that the water temperature of the baby turtle should not be low and 26 degrees in the future, so that the baby turtle will be in a bad state, and there will be sequelae in the future) Put a little large grain of salt. After a week, you can release small fish to break into the tank.
3.Filtration equipment. The filter box is laid as follows.
1) Filter ring (paved formation).
2) Black fluffy cotton is placed in the middle layer.
3) White filter cotton is laid on the upper layer. The above is not only to raise water, as long as the water is good, the pig nose will not get ** disease.
Food, pig nose is an omnivorous turtle, can be fed to fish, can also be fed together, for example, in spring, feed some fruits, in summer feed some vegetables, such as lettuce and other leafy vegetables or cherry tomatoes, autumn and winter can also be fed some fruits. It's seasonal vegetables and fruits. Do not let oily stuff get into the tank.

Anonymous users2024-02-09Raising a pig-nosed turtle requires maintaining clean water quality at all times, and if the water becomes turbid, the water needs to be changed immediately. The first time you keep a pignose turtle is to wait for it to acclimatize before feeding, and the rest are usually fed at night.

Pig-nosed turtles eat a large amount of food, mainly at night. If it is the first time to raise the pig-nosed turtle, it is also necessary to feed the pig-nosed turtle after it adapts to the environment, which takes about 3 or 4 days, and usually needs to be properly supplemented with vitamins and calcium nutrition.
After feeding the turtle, it is necessary to remove the uneaten food of the turtle in time to avoid affecting the water quality. Due to the large amount of food eaten by the pig-nosed turtle, it also has a lot of excrement, so it is necessary to maintain the habit of changing the water at least once a week.
