Proper Feeding Practices & Suggestions
TropicZone Performance Aquatic Turtle Diets have proven over many years to provide a tasty, efficient, nutritious food source for aquatic turtles from hatchling size up into their adult life stage. Each diet stage is specifically targeted to deliver the nutritional needs of aquatic turtles throughout their 5 milestone growth cycles. When properly fed, TropicZone Performance Aquatic Turtle Diets will provide a truly excellent diet your turtles will thrive on.
TropicZone Performance Turtle Diets should be offered to your turtles as follows:
Turtles should be feed in small amounts that they can consume completely within 2-3 minutes. Most aquatic turtles can ingest a surprising amount of food in a very short time period, so overfeeding can always be a concern. Take care not to overfeed. Excess food should be removed from the aquarium.
Most Aquatic Turtles can be fed multiple times daily, please refer to the Aquatic Turtle Diets main page for more specific direction on the feeding practices at each stage of your turtles development.
At TropicZone, we always suggest that 80-90% of your turtle’s total dietary intake should be comprise of the TropicZone Performance Aquatic Turtle Diet, these specially designed formulas provide the essential nutrition required at each stage of your turtle’s development.
To add variety, fun, and extra interest for your turtles, appropriate supplemental foods or treat items can be added up to the 10% of your turtle’s diet. These supplements can take the form of live or dried insects, fresh spinach or kale, or a specially designed mixed treat/supplement such as the
