Is it easy to clean an aquatic turtle's aquarium?

No. Cleaning out a turtle tank is a lot of hard work. First, you have to remove the dirty water from the tank, bucketful by bucketful. Then you have to carry the tank to the bathtub, dump out all the gravel, rinse the gravel separately, and then wash the tank with soap and water. It's a lot of physical labor and it takes a long time to do (about 2 hours).But if you have a filter for the tank, you do not have to do it very often (3 or 4 times a year). If you do not have a filter, you will have to clean out the tank at LEAST every other week.

How do you keep turtle tank clean?

Well to keep your turtle tank clean i suggest putting the turtle in a separate bowl. Then scrubbing the edges of the tank will rid algae or other unpleasant rots. If you have gravel or pebbles on the bottom of the tank either replace them or run them through hot water for a few minutes. Then just set up the tank fill it with water and put your little turtle inside! Hope this helps!

First if you have not already got a tank, go to a pet store and ask for the right size tank for your turtle. Also while you are there get at least 2 or more bags of gravel. Plus get some sand too. fill the bottom of the tank with the gravel and put a large hill goring up with the sand so your turtle can have land. put some small logs and drift wood into the tank so your turtle can hide. also put some aquatic plants in to so if you forget to feed it he/she can eat the plants. plus get a filter. then put your turtle in and he/she can enjoy the tank.


I need help with my turtle i have a turtle i keep it in a bathtub i have heating lamp but cant stick in on and its too far away from the plug is there another type heating thing that i can use?

A bathtub is not an appropriate home for a turtle. A turtle needs a home he can feel safe in, not a bathtub that he has to vacate every time somebody wants to take a shower. If he is an aquatic turtle, this is especially cruel: aquatic turtles need water to swim in, and a rock or a floating dock to bask on. You need to buy a proper tank for the turtle. Period. Tanks are not expensive; a nice, roomy one (about 30 inches by 12 inches) should cost no more than $40. Once you have the tank, you can hang the heat lamp over it, or use a clamp to attach it to the side of the tank. Also, remember that an aquatic turtle needs to frequently dry off his shell, or it will grow mold and fungus and make him sick. If your turtle is an aquatic turtle, you must get a floating dock or something for him to bask on.

How often do you clean a turtles tank?

I usually cleaned my tank once a month, or when it started to smell. Or, when the filter and rocks started to get slimy. Keeping a clean tank is vital to your turtle's health, so make sure to remember to clean.
