Taking care of a turtle is like taking care of a dog except the turtle is in a tank,
and as it gets bigger, you’ll have to purchase bigger sized tanks to accommodate the turtle’s size.

00:00:10,147 --> 00:00:17,527
You’re going to need a filter which could stay the same until it gets too big to 
where you’ll need a new bigger filter.

00:00:17,804 --> 00:00:27,514
You’ll need a rock or something for the turtle to crawl onto so it can dry off so 
the bacteria that grows in water will not harm the turtle.


4
00:00:27,764 --> 00:00:34,804
You’ll need a heat lamp, which isn’t really necessary, to help dry off the turtle
as it stays on the rock.


5
00:00:34,984 --> 00:00:44,494
Also have treats, food, and filter cartridges, you know for keeping the water 
clean and to feed the turtle.

00:00:44,774 --> 00:00:59,254
And when you handle a turtle, it’s best not to grab it in an n shape like this,
it’s best to grab it in a C shape so that way you don’t put too much pressure on 
the ribs when you grab it, and that’s all.
