Questions
How often do you use the turtle shell conditioner?
- Twice a monthÂ

So does this heal a cracked torotise shell?
- No my friend it does NOT fix a cracked shell. However it DOES lubricate keep the shell from getting dry and CRACKED. A cracked shell will only get better MAYBE with time and growth. But this will help to keep it moist and hydrated so it will NOT crack in the future. It is also good for your OWN hands!! Best of luck!!Â

How long do you wait after massaging the moisturizer before putting your aquatic turtle back into its water/tank? Do you let it rest on the shell for a while before putting them back in the tank?
- I waited like 30 minutesÂ

Does it help with turtle shell rot?
- I have dry land turtles and keeps shell from cracking.
Helpful?
Is this good for algea on the shell
- Yes, but not really what it's intended for. If your turtle has excessive algae, I recommend using an algae control product in the water. The conditioner is to help with moisturizing and small "cracks" in their shell.

Is this good for algea on the shell
- I use on land tortoises which doesn't have algea. It keeps the shell from cracking.
Helpful?
Can u use it on their arms feet
- Yes. I use it like you would use lotion on a human. It would hurt them. I’m not a vet or product representative.Â
Helpful?
Do I do this daily? And can I do this for just the morning or is it for both morning and night serum type of thing?
- Personally, I only use the product about once a week and that seems to be fine. I don't think that the time of day really matters but multiple times daily seems excessive.
Helpful?
Should i leave the conditioner on the shell, and put my turtle on the water, or should i apply the conditioner, massage, and then wash it off?
- I apply the conditioner and massage. I don't wash it off.

I have a 15 year old toroise turtle. Her she'll looks dried out. Can I put some avacado or Olive oil on her?
My african sideneck turtle shell has a green spot inside the shell, do you have any advise on how to treat or what the green may be.? In a article I read of putting the turtle in a dry area and letting them have a 1hr of water/feed time and use mild soap to wash shell (diluted?), povidone iodine (diluted?), and either rub it on shell or let sit with gauze on shell for 10 mins? Also dust their food with calcium..? Abagail (Abby, from Blade), she refuses to bask bt she does eat/have fun swimming
My turtle is losing her skin

Hey, I have a baby Sri Lanka Black Turtle (Melanochelys trijuga thermalis). I rescued the little guy from a pond that was in really bad condition, it had a lot of algae growing on it's shell. I noticed that it has some white spots on it's shell so I brush the shell with a soft toothbrush and apply betadine solution with a Q tip for the past 2 days and let it dry overnight. So I just wanted to know if this is shell rot and if I'm treating it correctly since there are no vets that know how to.
I have a one year old Mississippi map turtle and I have been keeping watch on him. I have noticed his shell is creating sores that have now become wounds. I have been using a diluted iodine to help however it doesn't seem very affective. What other things can I do to help stop this from occurring? It's very concerning for me and I wish the best treatment for him. Thank you for your help.
