6103. Caring for a 3-month-old red-eared slider in an apartment.

 

 SINGAPORE - 24 JUN 2026: A small plastic tank with water to house a 3-MONTH-OLD RED-EARED SLIDER. it has a green basking platform (R), 50-watt heat lamp (R, corner), submersible heater set at 28 to 30 degrees C set on for 24 hours and a water filtration pump with sponge and charcoal filters which must be replaced 1-2 monthly. The set up is in a pet shop selling sliders.

 

 

Caring for a 3-month-old red-eared slider in an apartment requires a 15 to 20-gallon tank (upgrading to 40+ gallons as it grows), a submersible water heater (76°F -- 85°F water), a dry basking dock, and specialized UVA/UVB and heat lamps. Feed them daily with high-quality pellets, insects, and dark leafy greens. FEED them in a separate tank to keep the main tank water clean.

Tank Setup & Water Quality

• Tank Size: Start with a minimum 15 to 20-gallon tank, but keep in mind they grow rapidly and need 10 gallons of water per inch of shell length. [1, 2]
• Water Depth: The water should be deep enough so the baby can easily flip over if needed, usually around twice the length of the shell.
• Filtration: Turtles are extremely messy. Use a high-quality submersible or canister filter rated for twice the volume of your tank to keep ammonia and nitrate levels safe. [1, 2]
• Maintenance: Perform weekly 25% water changes. According to a consensus among keepers on Facebook, you should do 50% changes when nitrates are high, but never clean the filter media and change the water during the same week to protect beneficial bacteria. [1, 2]
• Substrate: Use either bare bottom or large river rocks that are bigger than the turtle’s head to prevent choking. [1]

6102. Five twenty-year-old red-eared sliders in 2026 in a HDB flat

 24 Jun 2026 interview with a 37-year-old man who has the sliders for the past 20 years.

1. FEEDING 
1.1 3-month-old. 3 globular pellets in a separate tank daily. Everyday brand.
1.2  Older ones. Bigger pellets. Don't give variety such as vegetables or shrimp as slider will eat only shrimp. One of his sliders eat shrimp only. Another ate fish pellets. Also water will be smelly.
1.3  Feed in separate tank of water. Pollution. Save on filter changes.

2. WATER FILTRATION
2.1 3-month-old. Small filters of carbon or sponge. Need to replace monthly or two-month. Sliders fed in separate tank to prevent pollution of water.

He uses deep pails e.g 2 per pail.
       Feed in separate pail.
       Attach light bulb on side of pail. UVA 6 hours. UVB 4 hours.

3. UVA and UVB. Less than 12 hours for UVA. Less than 4 hours for UVB as he is worried about skin cancer. Bulb changes according to manufacturer. There are bulbs emiting UVA and UVB lights.
