This is all about the ecosystem and food chain in a pond. Aquatic plants also play a role in the system, as the food of the small aquatic animals such as small fish and crab. They also provide shading areas for the aquatic animals. Larger aquatic animals like bigger fish will consume on the smaller fish...

Food, hiding place from predators, plants oxygenate the water, aquatic plants also eliminate nitrogen waste by metabolizing ammonia and nitrate. When plants metabolize nitrogen compounds, they remove nitrogen from the water by using it to build biomass.

Because aside from it being a hiding place, its a source of nutrients for them. Roots get the carbon dioxide from the water as well and makes the pond less toxic for the fish.

i'm not likely to tell you which you will possibly desire to enable it pass as a results of fact which you probable won't. yet of you do not choose to enable it pass here is what you may desire to do. Get a small-medium plastic bath fill it with approximately an inch of water or fill it severe sufficient the turtle can stick its head out of the water. Then get some fairly flat good rocks. With those you stack them on the climate them placed one on the suitable making a cave. this permits a hiding spot for the turtle. in case you have a fish heater or a heating pad placed it under the tank. yet whilst it fairly is sunny and heat out you may in simple terms pass away it in the sunlight. so a great way as nutrients is going stay nutrients is greater perfect as a results of fact they are used to it. Earth warms, small fish, bugs, and so on. are all good issues. Oh and with the water in case you have fish water air purifier(removes chlorine) them placed some drops of that on the water. yet i choose to propose that when that turtle is greater advantageous enable it pass the place you stumbled on it. it gets to important which you will deal with and might substitute into very risky.
