A turtle needs air to breathe. Some turtles can slow their metabolism, allowing them to sleep underwater, but it must come up to the surface of the water in order to breathe. It can hold it's breath and stay underwater awhile, but it must surface to breathe or it will drown.

Can turtles live in swimming pools?
I wouldn't risk it. They wouldn't last long with all the chemicals they put in pools. Turtles are better suited to salt or fresh water. Yes they can if there are no chemicals. If it is just for housing the turtle. Also if you're keeping it outdoors make sure that it can survive outdoors in your area. Be sure the turtle can climb out of the pool, and be sure Raccoons and other critters cannot get them.
