Eastern painted turtles are not particularly large, so prepare a moderately spaced aquarium for them. However, if the number of breeding is relatively large, the container is also required to be larger. In the container, you also need to place some pebbles and plant some aquatic plants.
Eastern painted turtles are omnivorous tortoises, but they are more interested in carnivorous food when they are young and more interested in vegetarian food when they are adults. The main types of meat are fish and shrimp, snails, insects, etc. The types of vegetarian food include algae, aquatic plants and other aquatic plants. If you grow them at home, you can also feed some vegetables. What to feed can be adjusted as they age.

Eastern painted turtles also have certain requirements for water quality, ensuring good water quality can make them more Healthier and faster growth. If necessary, place a filter in the container so that the water won't be changed as often afterwards. Every time you change the water, you can replace about a third of it.
Eastern painted turtles also have certain requirements for sun exposure, and they need to be basked in the sun on a regular basis. If the light is not very good at ordinary times, you can add some artificially. Incandescent lamps and ultraviolet lamps can be used.
