I am trying to breed Red-Eared Sliders. The turtles are 6-7 years old. Shall I make sand or soil for the female to bury the eggs? How can i leave sand or soil moist in the aquarium? Do i need a special heater or something other than the water heater for the eggs? The aquarium will be situated in my backyard so it will have sunlight for about an hour, this means that i need a bulb basking? If yes what bulb do i need and what height do i need to do it? Also do i leave the bulb on in summer or in water only? Do i need UVB since they have some daylight? Can i just leave the eggs in the same aquarium and let them hatch alone without my intervention of incubation or do i need to do something?



I also attached a scetch of the aquarium. Can someone tell me what do you think?



Thanks
