The temperature of the water should be about 75-80 degrees fahrenheit. I would say that 80 should be perfect.

What is a red eared sliders habitat?

Red-eared sliders enjoy large areas where they are free to swim. Red-eared sliders brumate over the winter at the bottom of ponds or shallow lakes. Also they need to have a place for basking and basking means where they can have the sun light hit them.


Do red eared sliders need a dry area?

Yes, red-eared sliders need a dry area to get out of the water. Above this area should be a turtle basking lamp. Aquatic turtles will bask daily. Basking keeps the turtle's skin and shell health from fungus while the UV in the light is needed for the turtles growth. Without a dry area and a basking light your turtle will not be healthy and happy.


Are red eared sliders aquatic turtles?

They are semi-aquatic. They need a basking light and a basking area such as a floating log or basking platform so that they can climb out of the water to bask. This is essential to their health. If a red eared slider doesn't have an area to bask and can't get out of the water, it's shell will get soft and it will eventually die. They need UVA and UVB light in order to process their food. Heat and light are essential for these turtles. Keep them in water around 70 degrees and provide a basking area and a basking light that has both UVA and UVB rays or two lights, including one UVA and one UVB bulb.

No - you NEED to maintain the correct temperature range for the species ! The heat-pad provides general 'background' heat, while the basking light offers a localised 'hot-spot' and the UV light provides necessary ultra-violet spectrum.
