Reptile One Turtle Eco Tank

At Waterlife Aquarium, we specialise in giving the correct advice to keep your turtle happy and healthy for many years. We also have dozens of Baby Turtles in stock, ready for their new home. Some critical points need mentioning.

1.   Heating is essential. The most common form of heating used is a thermostatically controlled aquarium heater. It is generally set at 24 degrees and maintains that temperature.

2. Turtles, just like all animals, need Ultra Violet Lighting, Vitamin D3, and Calcium. The UVB light helps the turtle’s body produce Vitamin D3. When Vitamin D3 is present, the turtle’s shell can absorb the calcium, staying nice and hard. Softshell in turtles is common, but it is 100% avoidable if all the correct information is given during the initial purchasing stage. We highly recommend a 10.0 UVB. Check these out in our store.

3. A ‘docking area’ or landing is required for the turtle to come out of the water to dry off.

4.     Filtration is critical as it will maintain good quality water conditions. Turtle’s urine and waste turn into ammonia, which can cause the water to go acidic and eat away at the turtle’s slime coating, causing fungal issues. To start the filter in a brand new turtle tank, we recommend using BioActive8 live bacteria.
