Do water turtles need to be acclimated to new water? I have tried finding this answer through google searches but am coming up empty handed for an answer.
I acclimate my fish when adding new ones into the tank. I put the new fish in a bucket with their current water. Set up a drip line, pop in an air stone and let that run for 15 min or so. Once their bucket of water is primarily the new water, I add them.
Do I need to do this same procedure for adding turtles into a tank?
Or
Can the turtles just be put into the tank directly with no issues?
Thanks for helping me with such a silly question
