Description
Gibba Toad Head Turtle Phrynops Gibbus 20cm
“Meet the captivating Gibba Toad Head Turtle, also known as Phrynops gibbus, a charming species originating from the freshwater habitats of South America. Renowned for its distinctive toad-like head and sleek, olive-brown carapace, this turtle exudes unique charm.
Feeding on a diverse diet of aquatic invertebrates, fish, and plant matter, the Gibba Toad Head Turtle thrives on a varied menu, making feeding both engaging and manageable. In captivity, a balanced diet consisting of pellets, insects, and occasional greens ensures their optimal health.
With a generally calm demeanor, these turtles are compatible with peaceful tank mates such as small, non-aggressive fish and other similarly sized turtle species. Their non-aggressive nature makes them suitable for communal setups in spacious tanks, although monitoring interactions is advisable.
Intermediate experience level is recommended for keeping the Gibba Toad Head Turtle, as they require a carefully maintained aquatic environment. Consistent water temperatures between 75-80°F (24-27°C), pH levels around 6.5-7.5, and clean, well-filtered water are vital for their well-being.
Discover the charm and elegance of the Gibba Toad Head Turtle, a captivating addition to any aquatic enthusiast’s collection.”
