The Sino-American snapping turtle is a deep-water turtle because it lives in relatively deep waters. However, if the Chinese and American snapping turtles are raised in captivity, the situation is different.

Although it can make Sino-American snapping turtles grow Live in deep water, but the water doesn't have to be too deep. If the water is too deep, it will cause a lot of trouble, for example, it will be more troublesome when changing the water, because the amount of water changing will be relatively large. Therefore, the water level does not have to be too high. Of course, it can't be too low, so that the back of the Sino-American snapping turtle cannot be exposed above the water surface. Generally speaking, it is enough to control the water level at 2 or 3 times the height of the back shell of the Sino-American snapping turtle.
