Creating a comfortable living environment for your pet turtle includes providing proper lighting, appropriate heat and humidity levels, appropriate foods and nutrition, clean fresh water every day, a secure shelter that offers safety but allows your pet to exercise its muscles regularly, a nice tank bed or hiding place (caves or fake plants work great), plenty of hidey holes and/or climbing opportunities for entertainment or exercise such as driftwood or aquarium logs, plus daily monitoring of the environment for optimal health. In general the ideal temperatures range from 70-75°F (21-24°C). Ultraviolet lighting is also beneficial.

First, ensure that your pet turtle has a securely covered, temperate tank with a filter and plenty of oxygen. A heating pad can be used to keep the tank at the right temperature. Provide them with several species-appropriate hide boxes or rocks so they can feel safe and comfortable, as well as enough food like small insects and vegetables for them to live healthily. Finally, give them plenty of companionship by talking to them and playing interactive games.
