The red-faced egg turtle can live in deep water, but it is not necessary to keep the water level too high in captivity. Generally speaking, it is more appropriate to control it at 3-5 times the height of their back shell, and it is best not to exceed 5 times the height of their back shell. If the water is really deep, you can place a sun deck in the container or aquarium for them to sit on and allow them to climb on.

Furthermore, the red-faced egg turtle is relatively small At this time, that is, the young turtle stage, the water should not be too deep at this time, and appropriate shallow water can be used for breeding. As the size of the red-faced egg turtle gradually increases, the water level can be slowly raised. By the time they reach adulthood, the water level can be fixed at a certain height, and it can remain at this height during water changes.
