Malay fruit turtles are kept in shallow water. Malay fruit turtles inhabit shallow waters with abundant aquatic vegetation, such as swamps, wetlands, and streams in forests. Malay fruit turtles, especially adults, require a large enclosure, including warm, clean water and a piece of land. Placing branches and fallen wood in the water and laying straw on land can help relieve the turtle's mental stress.

How to raise Malay fruit turtles:

1. Temperature. Raising Malay fruit turtles requires controlling the temperature between 25 and 30 degrees. They are most active at 27 to 29 degrees.

2. Water quality. They like to move in the water, so be sure to change the water once a week to ensure it is clean and prevent bacterial growth.

3. Food. The Malay fruit turtle is an omnivorous turtle and can be fed some plant foods, such as vegetables and fruits, as well as some animal plants, such as earthworms, lean beef, etc.

4. Place of refuge. Malay Fruit Turtles are timid, so you need to prepare some shelter for them when raising them, so that they will be healthier.

5. Lighting. They rarely bask on their backs, and sufficient light conditions make their carapace stronger. Be careful that the light source is farther away from them and the exposure time is not too long.
