CATDOLL: The water temperature is suitable for feeding dried fish to turtles

1. The water temperature is suitable for feeding dried fish to turtles

Feed dried small fish to turtles when the water temperature is between 20 and 30 degrees. According to relevant public information, turtles are omnivorous animals, feeding on insects, worms, small fish, shrimps, snails, clams, young leaves, duckweed, melon peels, wheat grains, rice, weed seeds, etc. They will eat normally when the water temperature is between 20 and 30 degrees Celsius.

2. Can turtles eat the small dried fish that humans eat?

It is best not to. Generally, turtles eat small fish and shrimps. The turtle food sold on the street is not reliable, so it is best to feed them small fish and shrimps. You can also catch some small fish and shrimps for them to eat when you go out for fun. In addition, turtles also eat insects, such as grasshoppers, crickets, and mantises. Remember not to feed them poisonous ones.

The dried and cooked small fish that people eat should have a lot of salt and sugar, which is not good for turtles.

Can be soaked

Okay, as small as possible.

Hard to say

3. Are there any freshwater deep-water turtle species?

A freshwater deep-water turtle species is the pig-nosed turtle.

The pig-nosed turtle (scientific name: Carettochelys insculpta), also known as the Oceania pig-nosed turtle, is the only species of the genus Carettochelys in the family Carinthidae. Its distribution is limited to northern Australia, southern Irian Jaya and southern New Guinea. It is the only surviving species in the family Carinthidae.

The pig-nosed turtle is a highly aquatic freshwater turtle. In addition to laying eggs, it lives in water all year round, so its limbs are specialized into flippers like those of sea turtles, which is unique among freshwater turtles. The length of the carapace of an adult pig-nosed turtle can generally reach 46-51cm, and the weight is generally 18-22Kg. The largest pig-nosed turtle found so far has a carapace length of 56.3cm and a weight of 22.5Kg. Its carapace is relatively round, dark gray, olive gray or brown-gray, with a row of white spots near the edge. The edge is slightly serrated, and because the outer edge bones are well developed and the structure is complete, there is no skirt like a turtle. There is no shield, but instead a continuous and slightly wrinkled skin. There is a row of thorn-like ridges in the middle of the carapace. The plastron of the body is light in color, white, milky white or light yellow, and slightly cross-shaped. The head is of moderate size and cannot be retracted into the shell. The pig-nosed turtle is one of the most peculiar-looking freshwater turtles. Its nose is long and fleshy, resembling a pig's nose, hence the name pig-nosed turtle. There is a gray stripe behind the eye. Its limbs are specialized into fins to adapt to aquatic life and cannot be retracted into the shell. There are two obvious claws near the midpoint of each forelimb, which is also one of its characteristics.

4. Are turtles and tortoises the same? Can you give us a brief introduction? Are there any that grow in fresh water?

There is indeed a difference between turtles and soft-shelled turtles (also known as tortoises) in biology.

"Wangba" is a common name, not a formal biological term. Its original meaning is "a man who indulges his wife in an affair", and it was written as "Wangba" at the time. Later, people used "duck" to refer to or metaphorically represent "Wangba", because the ducks in the past Chinese breeds had green heads.

Later it also referred to "turtle", see (A Dream of Red Mansions, Xue Pan: "Marrying a man is a turtle" and "My husband is a bastard") Now it is basically used as an alias for "turtle" in the whole country.

The turtle has a special shell on its body. The head, tail and limbs can be extended and retracted from the shell. The whole body is box-shaped and can be divided into three parts: head and neck, trunk, limbs and tail. The back of the head is slightly triangular, black or brown-black, the mouth is located at the front of the head, the front of the top of the head is smooth, and the back is fine-grained and scaly. The upper and lower jaws are toothless, and the jaw edges are covered with a tough fish-like sheath called a beak. The nostrils are located at the front of the snout. The sense of smell and touch are relatively developed. The whole body of the turtle is box-shaped, and the whole body is wrapped in a box-shaped shell. The turtle shell is clearly divided into two parts: the dorsal carapace and the plastron, which are connected to each other on both sides by a bridge. The dorsal carapace and the plastron are composed of two layers, the outer layer is a horny shield derived from the epidermis, and the inner layer is a bone plate derived from the dermis. The shield grooves between the shields and the sutures of the bone plates do not overlap, so the turtle shell is extremely strong.

The turtle, also known as the soft-shelled turtle, has a flat body that is slightly round or oval. The body is covered with soft leathery skin. There are two dorsal and ventral carapaces. The dorsal carapace is slightly raised with a soft keratin skirt around it, and the ventral carapace is flat. The sides of the two carapaces are connected by ligament tissue. The back is usually dark green or yellowish brown, with inconspicuous warts arranged in longitudinal rows. The ventral surface is grayish white or yellowish white. The turtle has a long and powerful neck that can stretch and turn very flexibly. The snout is pointed and protruding, and there is a pair of nostrils at the front of the snout, which is convenient for it to stretch out of the water to breathe. The eyes are small and located on both sides of the head. The mouth is wide and located on the ventral side of the head. The upper and lower jaws have hard keratin sheaths that can crush hard food. There is a short tongue in the mouth, which is muscular, but it cannot stretch freely and can only help swallow food. The turtle's limbs are flat and short, located on both sides of the body, and can be retracted into the shell. There are five fingers on the forelimbs and five toes on the hind limbs. There are well-developed webbing membranes between the fingers and toes of the limbs, and the 1st to 3rd fingers and toes have hooked claws protruding from the webbing membranes. Because the turtle has strong limbs and well-developed webbing membranes, it can crawl on land and swim in water. When it catches food, its powerful forelimbs and claws can also tear large pieces of food into pieces, making it easier to bite and swallow. The difference between turtles and turtles: The easiest way to distinguish between them is:

1. Turtles have hard shells, while turtles have softer shells.

2. The back of a tortoise has patterns on it, while the back of a soft-shell turtle is black and has no patterns.

3. Turtles will not bite people. If you touch a turtle with something like a branch, it will retract its head. However, soft-shelled turtles will bite people. If you touch a soft-shelled turtle with something like a branch, it will hold the branch tightly and not let go.
