Amavolumu ama-red -red slider angama-aquatic aquatic futhi achitha isikhathi esiningi sokubheka ama-basking ngakho badinga itangi elikhulu ngokwanele ukunikeza amanzi kokubili ukubhukuda kanye nendawo lapho bangayomisa khona. Uma kunakekelwa kahle, izigqoko ezibomvu ezihamba ngokubomvu zingaphila isikhathi eside futhi zibe izilwane ezifuywayo kakhulu kodwa ukusetha kwamathangi abo kubalulekile kubo abanesimo esihle sempilo.
Usayizi we-Turtle Tank we-Red Eared Slider
Kumele uhlele ukuthi ube namagremu angu-10 wamanzi ngamanzimitha angu-intshi njengombuso ojwayelekile wesithupha kodwa ithangi elingama-20 elingu-tani elilinganiselwe lamanzi abomvu abomvu.
Uma ukhumbula ukuthi ama-sliders abomvu angafunda ama-intshi angu-10-12 njengabantu abadala, ungabona ukuthi ekugcineni uzodinga itangi elikhulu kakhulu. Iziqukathi ezinkulu zepulasitiki noma izitsha zokugcina izitoreji zingcono kunezinye izindawo uma nje ungacabangi ukuthi awukwazi ukubuka ama-turtles ohlangothini. Uma nje isiqukathi siphelile futhi indawo ehlala phansi imisiwe ukuze izingulube zingakwazi ukukhuphuka kuzo ngeke udinga isembozo.

Ama-sliders abomvu adinga amanzi amaningi okwanele okubhukuda kuwo. Okungenani, amanzi kufanele abe okungenani izikhathi eziyi-1.5 kuya kwezingu-2 ngokujulile njengoba i-tortle yakho ide kakhulu (ngakho-ke ama-intshi angu-4 intshi kufanele abe nokujula okungenani okungama-intshi ayisithupha). Ubude bendawo yamanzi kufanele okungenani kube ngubude obuyisihlanu ubude be-turtle, futhi ububanzi kufanele okungenani izikhathi ezingu-3 ubude be-turtle. Uma nje i-tortle yakho ingaphumelela emanzini futhi ayikho indawo inamba yakho engangena ngaphansi kwamanzi, akudingeki ukhathazeke nge-othole lwakho lokugwinya njengoba bebagibeli abaqinile.
Phakathi kokudla nokuhlanzeka, izinhlanzi ziyizidalwa ezinamahle kakhulu ngakho-ke i- tank yakho kufanele ihlanganise uhlelo oluhle lokuhlunga njengesihlungi samandla noma i-canister filter ukuze kugcinwe amanzi. Khetha isihlungi esilinganisiwe esivumelwaneni sokuqashisa kabili inani lamanzi ozolihlunga ngoba izinhlanzi ziyizilwane ezifuywayo ezinjalo.
Ukuhlunga kuyonciphisa izinga lokushintsha kwamanzi kodwa izintambo zakho zizofuna ama-25% izinguquko zamanzi masonto onke nokuhlanza ngokuphelele kanye ngenyanga noma ngaphezulu. Ukondla i-tortle yakho ku-container ehlukile kusiza ukunciphisa umonakalo emathonjeni abo futhi kunciphise umthwalo ohlelweni lokuhlunga.
Indawo Ehamba Ngama-Turtle Tank Basking
Indawo engasenayo ye-tortle yakho ingahlinzekwa ngokufaka imigwaqo ebushelelezi, ukuhamba ngokushelela, igravel enkulu kolunye uhlangothi ukwenza indawo yomhlaba, ngokusebenzisa izinkuni noma ipulasitiki "ye-tortle dock." Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ukhetha ukukwakha indawo, yenza isiqiniseko sokuthi i-tortle yakho ingawukhuphuka kalula futhi ivumela ukuthi i-tortle yakho ihlale isomile ngokuphelele.
Imihlobiso ye-Turtle Tank Imibukiso e-Red Eared Slider
Uma udala itanki, yenza kube lula ukuhlanza (okungukuthi ungahlanjululwa) futhi ukhumbule ukuthi ama-turtles angase aqoqe izinto futhi aqhube izinto ezizungezile. Izitshalo zingase zibe ithinta elihle kepha ama-turtles angase enze inhlanhla yazo noma ayiqothule (izitshalo zepulasitiki cishe ziyoxoshwa futhi zenze ukuhlanza kunzima kakhulu). Ngokufanayo, igrafu ingaba ithinta elihle kodwa ingenza futhi ukuthi ithangi likhuni ukuhlanza futhi kufanele uqinisekise ukuthi likhulu ngokwanele ukuthi ngeke ligwinwe ngengozi.
I-Red Eared Slider Turtle Tank Heat
Amanzi esitokisini se-turtle ehamba ngokubomvu kufanele agcinwe ku-75-78 degrees Fahrenheit (23-26 degrees Celsius), no-78-80 degrees Fahrenheit (26-27 degrees Celsius) ama-hatchlings.
I-air embi e-tank kumele ibe yi-degree engama-75-80 degrees Fahrenheit (24-27 degrees Celsius), enezansi ezingeni lika-90-95 degrees Fahrenheit (32-35 degrees Celsius).
Umshini wokushisa wamanzi ongasetshenzisiwe ungasetshenziselwa ukugcina amanzi afudumele uma kunesidingo kodwa ukushisa okuphukile kungumonakalo obulalayo uma kuphuza amanzi kakhulu. Ungakwazi ukuvikela i-heat heater ukuze izintula zingenakuzibamba ngokuzibeka ngemuva kwezinto (isib. Izitini) noma ngokufaka uhlobo oluthile lwekhava njengengxenye yepayipi le-PVC. Ungakwazi futhi ukuthola ama-heaters asePlastiki ahlala njalo njenge-Visitherm Stealth heater. Thola i-aquarium thermometer enhle (hhayi umshini emgqeni) bese uqapha ukushisa kwamanzi.
Kufanele kube khona ukukhanya okubheka phansi endaweni lapho i-tortle ingakwazi khona ukuphuma emanzini ukuze igcine ifudumele. Isibani esiphendukile / isibani sokushisa esitheni esibonakalayo singasebenzisa le njongo kodwa qinisekisa ukuthi ayikho indlela i-turtle engayithinta ngayo ukukhanya noma ukuthi ukukhanya kungawela emanzini.
Ukukhanya okusizayo kuzokusiza ukushisa umoya kuleli tangi.

Ngaphandle kokukhanya okubheke ukushisa, ukukhanya okuphelele kwe-reptile UVA / UVB kufanele kuhlinzekwe. Ukuboniswa ku-UVA / UVB kuyadingeka ukuze kube nokusebenza kahle kwe-calcium metabolism futhi kubonakala kunezinye izinzuzo kuzo zonke impilo ezifana nokuthuthukisa ukudla. Kuyinto enhle ukuthatha i-tortle yakho ibe ilanga lemvelo esimweni sezulu esishisayo uma ungakwazi. Thola i-bullet efanele ye-UVA / UVB ibhubhu bese ulandela umhlahlandlela womkhiqizi ngokuphathelene nokubekwa kwe-bulb (ama-UV ama-ray ayancipha ukuthi uthola kude ne-bulb ngokubeka i-bulb ngendlela yokuthi i-tortle ingazuza ku-UV ibalulekile). Kubalulekile ukufaka esikhundleni se-bulb njengoba kunconywa umenzi, ngoba ukuqina kwe-UV kukhiqizwa kunciphisa ngokuhamba kwesikhathi. Uma i-tortle yakho ihlala ngaphandle kwalokhu ukukhanya akudingekile.
