There are plenty of unbreakable heaters out there, and I wouldn't give up on this essential point. Your turtles' water temps should be a constant 28 degrees. If not, it could lead to health problems, particularly resiratory ones. This is especially true if you don't have a basking light either. What's more, warm temps will increase its diet intake.
