Find Aquatic Turtle Supplies at Uncle Bill's Pet Centers!
World Turtle Day is this month (5/23) ~ So stop by your local Uncle Bill's Pet Center (or peruse our online store) for a menagerie of turtle supplies on sale from fantastic brands such as
Exo Terra, Zilla, ZooMed Labs &
more!

aquatic turtle.
In general, aquatic turtles require at least a 20G tank if juvenile, and a minimum of 40 Gallons if a pair of adult turtles. Be sure to provide plenty of hiding places and a nice basking spot, along with proper filtration as turtles can produce quite a bit of waste. However, that can be made easy with regular water changes, adequate filtration, and the help of conditioners such as Turtle Clean.
*Exo Terra Turtle Clean is a 100% biological habitat cleaner that helps reduce and control odors while also rapidly reducing organic waste. Plus, the natural byproduct of Exo Terra Turtle Clean is a food source for desirable beneficial bacteria!
*UVB/UVA lighting is also a necessity in order for aquatic turtles to process calcium in captivity. Linear and compact fluorescents or halogen lights work well for these, or power/combo lighting for both UVB and basking heat, as long as it's not placed over or close to the water. All
Exo Terra light bulbs are on sale now!
*The
Zilla Turtle Trunk is a fun floating platform which is free-standing, allowing for limitless options for placement! The platforms rise and lower with the changing water levels, providing an always-accessible basking surface for your turtles. Realistic and natural-looking, these platforms can fit in 20 G or larger tanks and can hold multiple large turtles at once!
*ZooMed Labs Turtle Docks are perfect for turtles to bask upon, too. The self-leveling feature automatically adjusts to any water level - all while the ramp allows easy access to the platform. They also come with handy suction cups for easy mounting - as well as in multiple different sizes for various habitats and applications!
