re of asian box turtles (cuora/cistoclemys species)will depedn somewhat on species. Do you know which kind you need help with?
Cuora amboinensis and Cistoclemmys flavomarginata are probably the most commonly kept.

there are quite a few others, some of which are very demanding.
Try looking around here to determine which kind you have or need help with:

cistoclemmys turtles at WCT

and

cuora turtles at WCT
on top of each page there are articles about the various species and if you scroll down. there are lots of photos.
