These are the minimum elements to your Aquarium Tortuguero, and keep in good condition to your turtle.
1) Aquariums: There are a variety of types of aquarium sizes, shapes etc. The most important thing to an aquarium as large as possible so that they grow your turtle, do not buy another aquarium over the years.
is very important the construction of the Aquarium (attached by the parties) have been so safe silicone that does not affect the health of your turtles with silicone chemicals.
also must have ramps on their sides so that they can rest on your reptiles.
My recommendation is to buy an aquarium Tortuguero, are the most suitable for the habitat of these reptiles.
2) Heater: must remember that turtles are reptiles, Heterotermes so much require heat to maintain vital functions. Thus the space for them to be spacious and should offer sunny and shady sites.
temperature water depends on the type of turtle you have, but should range between 20 ° and 28 ° C.
To calculate the temperature you need to know how many gallons of water does your aquarium. So we calculate:
Liters: (Length (cm) x Height (cm) x Depth (cm)) / 1000.
This way you get the amount of water you have in your aquarium. Once you have this information must be multiplied by 0.5 to get the necessary regulation of your water heater every time you clean the tank must be disconnected.
3) Thermometers: One way of controlling the temperature of your aquarium, you have a thermometer that is very cheap. There
thermometer and Internal Affairs, the idea of \u200b\u200bthermometer is not only to have it, but check the temperature of water each day, so we know if needed to regulate the heater in such a way to reach the desired temperature.
4) Lighting: not so important, if your tank is near a part where you give them enough daylight, I recommend that the case was otherwise acquire lighting otherwise we left the aquarium and Tortuguero.
In case you need to ensure the correct fluorescent lighting are affordable and appropriate, and its installation is not so complex.
5) Filter: With each passing day your tank is getting dirty, so you must be careful to constantly change your aquarium water in order to prevent very common disease in the Tortugas, and swollen eyes , inappetence, and death of the reptile.
The best way to clean and oxygenate the water constantly in your aquarium, as waste and particulate matter is provided by the filters, you should not miss on any aquarium Tortuguero.
The market offers a variety of filters immersed, prices, quality and models the most important thing is that when you purchase a filter to be concerned about the ability of the filter, because if your tank is 80 gallons is illogical to buy a filter 150 liters, and that will not help you because the water jet that shoots too large, and as you know the Tortuguero aquarium should have shallow water.
6) Conditioner: is important to note that city water contains many chemical elements, such as chlorine and fluoride salts, which dissolved in the aquarium cause skin irritation.
A simple example is the copper plumbing where water has to go to reach our homes during the tour off small pieces of copper, which undoubtedly hurts the life of the reptile.
As filters are a range of products, price and quality, the most important purchase products of excellent quality. Usually in the package are the indications of use, which will apply every time we change the water in your aquarium.
It should be noted that for purposes of Tortuguero an aquarium look more attractive, you buy stones and place them inside the aquarium, which will also help be a part so they can rest in them the Turtles have this second effect, decorate the aquarium Tortuguero.
Al adquirir estas piedras, fíjate que no tengan cantos filosos de tal manera que cualquier roce, no produzca daños a tus Tortugas.
| Importante Debes tener en cuenta que el agua de tu acuario Tortuguero ha de tener tanta profundidad que les permita que tus Tortugas puedan sumergirse por completo, como así poder salir al aire lo más fácil posible, es decir que la profundidad de agua de tu acuario ha de ser aproximadamente como el ancho del caparazón. |
