QuestionHi
I have a RES and a Mississippi map turtle and they are hatchlings, i wanted to ask if i can fill the tank of more because i have it deep enough so that they can stand in both feet and breeth.
Thank you
AnswerSome people believe that they should be in shallow water when young, but in the wild they are found in water up to several feet deep.
In general, you would have a hard time having too much water in a home set-up! As long as they have good basking sites, etc. the depth is not a problem.
