Painted Turtles are semi aquatic. They are happy to swim, but they also need to come out of the water to bask under UVA/UVB light and completely dry off. Because they do not have saliva, they also need water to eat in or they won't be able to swallow their food. If you need a basking platform for your turtles to bask on, you can head over to a local pet store and find one or check out an online store for a discounted price.
pet turtles can sleep as much as they want in water if they loose oxygen they will lift their heads and get oxygen

Red painted turtles are very good at swimming. Although they may not be super-fast, they can swim for long periods of time and know their way around. In fact, most turtles are good swimmers.
They sure can as long as they like eachother! ;)
Most species of turtles can survive out of water for a long time, as long as the environment is humid and out of direct sun. It is not a good idea for turtles to be completely removed from water, though.
Turtles have to go to the surface of water to breathe so if they get caught in underwater fishing nets they will drown.
No, they have to surface to breathe. They can go a long time between breaths though.
Painted turtles usually have horizontal stripes running down their neck. Snapping turtles are drab in color. The maximum size of a Painted turtle is 10 inches. The maximum size for a snapper is between 20 and 30 inches. Snapping turtles cannot withdraw their heads, whereas Painted turtles can close up almost completely.
