Do turtles need filters for their tank?

Yes, turtles generally need filters for their tank to keep the water clean. In addition to circulating the water in your turtle's tank, filters also help remove solid waste that can pollute the water.

What are the best types of filters for a turtle tank?

The best types of filters for a turtle tank include external canister filters, power filters (also known as hang-on-back filters), and submersible filters. Circulation pumps may be beneficial to keep the water from going stagnant, but they don't provide mechanical, chemical, or biological filtration.

How often should you change the filter in a turtle tank?

How often you change the filter in a turtle tank depends on the type of filter. Any filter with replaceable cartridges generally needs to be changed every 30-60 days. Even with models that have permanent filter media, like canister filters, you may still need to rinse prefilter sponges monthly.
