Questions
I need to raise the ph in fish tank. Will this dissolve in the water and raise ph ?
- If nothing eats one of these, and it lays in the tank for a long time, it does not seem to dissolve. If it did, it would not have a much effect on the water because it would be such a slow process.
Helpful?
Would this work for a pet snail to harden their shell?
- That is what I use it for. My snails seem to treat these just like cuttlebones. They actually seem to prefer these to cuttlebone, although, they are essentially the same thing.
Helpful?
You just put it in the tank and it floats? Or sinks to bottom?
- It floats mostly a few may sink.

How often should i give my tortoise cuttlebone? And in which quantity? ,, sorry, the corrector typed it wrong previously.
I have a turtle I got as a hatchling whose shell has started to curve. I’ve read this could be due to too much protein, too weak of uv/uvb lights, or a combination that makes him grow too fast for the shell to keep up. I’m going to the pet supply store to get a new bulb tomorrow and he eats feeder fish as well as a variety (gold fish food he steals, dry meal worms, pellets from two different brands) of dry foods. How can I help him better?
I have always given my turtle ReptoMin for the past 14 years. Are there any other foods or treats i can feed her?
I have had this turtle for 3.5 years. He doesn't seem to be growing. He is in a 10 gallon tank. Is this to small and does his underneath side look healty?
Only a week ago I transferred my two red eared sliders to a preformed pond enclosure, cleaned the filter, added common goldfish from the pet store to the water -- Not adding the water they came in into the pond obviously. I noticed both had a dull white smudge/blotch on their plastron and tiny white hard bumps on their carapace, and I can't manage to pick them off. No dents or bad smells, clear eyes, clean water. Same diet besides one night of goldfish binging. Could they be calcium deposits?
I have 2 musk turtles, not sure of the gender but one is a lot bigger than the other one. The little one hasn't been growing much, I'm not too sure why. I've noticed recently that it has stopped eating. I separate the two when they eat so they get enough food. I have appropriate lighting and heater for the turtles.
I got this turtle from this lady they didn’t know nothing about turtles and I think it’s a fungal infection it’s all white and the nutrition was very bad they only gave him one pellet a day he’s a year old and It’s very small what can I do for it’s shell I feel so bad they kept him in a very small plastic box like barely enough water I have another turtle they are not in the same tank I’m trying to help this poor turtle I’m worried he’s very active hes very skinny his is soft almost wet like
My turtle shell is peeling off like a skin not like a hard scale. its been 2 weeks and it not coming off. It's a local pond turtle.
I have a red eared slider who is 1 and a half year old. The commercial pellet box suggests that I feed my turtle twice as much as she can eat. Should I follow this, however even if I give 20 pellets at a time, my turtle eats it.
My Red ear Slider's shell is feeling a bit soft around the edges. If it touch it, it bends slightly. It this a sign of MBD? My turtle is still young. He's only around 2.5 inches
Not sure if you guys also help turtles but I still want to ask. I have a two baby turtles in a huge tank. I have everything needed like the basking area, uvb light bulb, heat bulb, and good water temperature. Recently one of my turtles started sleeping all day and would not swim at all. This happened for two days and now she stopped eating. Today I also saw him extremely weak and had trouble climbing the rock after I place him in the water. What should I do to help my turtle.
How much greens should I feed my red eared slider with pyramiding and soft shell at a time.Should I feed both pellets and greens together in a day?Which heat lamp brand do you recommend and how many watts should I buy if the lamp is 21 cm away from the dock?
