Turtles in the tub with "really" warm water? I dont understand why you would even want to do this.
They are swimming around like that because they are stressed, they dont understand what is going on.
Leave them in there tank, they are happy there and know there surroundings, just make sure they have all the requirements they need.

Turtles are not happy. They have no emotion, remember they are reptiles, and are cold blooded, you seriously need to be careful you can injure them with high temps in water, your very warm water could have been over 99's degrees and you wouldn't know it. I suggest you down load some care sheets for your pets.

Turtles are no longer all too lively and would possibly no longer instruct symptoms of love. in the event that they're being fed, being dealt with suitable, have sufficient space and so on. Their enclosure is clean and each little thing around them is doing sturdy then they're maximum possibly chuffed. only be confident she is lively, and eating. no longer lively, oversleeping, no longer eating could be symptoms of rigidity or ailment meaning no longer chuffed.

turtleslike warm water, but i think you should leave them in the tank so that no stress is brought. if water is too cold they'll attempt to hibernate and they can't really do that, get a heater to place in the water to keep it at a constant temperature
