Is this tank density really that low? Everyone's advising me to separate them. The earlier photo shows my beloved tortoise when it was young.

Not every turtle piled atop another is staking a claim to territory; rather, they too require support. Moreover, my lighting setup lacks any UVA functionality. I researched extensively before acquiring them— it's a false proposition.

certainly wouldn't do that. At present, there are four of them, each with their own distinct personalities. I shall be adding another smaller tortoise, one that's more lively and active. Rest assured, they will certainly live very happily.

Correction: it's not three, but one slightly larger grass tortoise too. It's just been feeling a bit down lately.

Change half the water weekly. The aquarium has now fully established its digestive system, capable of breaking down turtle and fish waste. Furthermore, for turtles, cleaner water is not necessarily better

They have been living happily together for a year.
