How can you care for your pet turtle in a cheap way?
Generally turtles are not the cheapest pets to have, especially to set up. To maintain a healthy turtle's life it needs to have good nutrition, clean tank water, plenty of room, UV light, a basking area and a basking lamp. This is quite expensive to set up for the first time, but is relatively cheap to maintain. NOTE: it is often easy to buy your new baby turtle with a tank suitable for it's adult size, to avoid having to pay a lot more money when buying a second tank.

To change a turtle's tank, first, remove the turtle and place it in a temporary container with some of its water. Next, drain the tank, scrubbing the surfaces with a non-toxic aquarium safe cleaner or a mixture of vinegar and water to remove algae and debris. Rinse thoroughly, refill the tank with clean, dechlorinated water, and ensure the temperature and filtration system are set up before returning the turtle to its habitat. Finally, add any necessary decorations or substrate back into the tank.

How big of a tank should painted turtles have?
That depends on the size of the turtle and the size of your tank. If the turtle is the size of your palm or smaller then fill the tank no more than 2-3 times his height (as if he were standing all the way up on his back two feet). If the turtle is larger than that you can fill a tank up to around 2 feet deep. Make sure the turtle has a spot where he can get out of the water easily to bask under a light.
