malayan box turtles are not fully aquatic, they are semi aquatic. I would recommend your read up on the turtle and gather as much info as you can before buying them... it would be a waste of money if you killed it.

here are a few links to help you... search some more..

In my experience most dont like deep water specialy females. It isnt a very adequate turtle to keep in a deep water setup with big fish
