    Questions on smooth shell development

    Yes! It is just a slight anomaly growth. I am just worried abt the future. Cuz it’s always nice to reganize a problem early! Is there anything I need to do in order to prevent it from getting worst? Also I am planning on using shell saver. Any advise on how often or how to apply it on the shell?

    Questions on smooth shell development

    Goomo is perfectly health and active! All I was asking is his shell problems. I want him to have a perfectly smooth shell, but as shown in the pictures some of his plates are growing inward and were not very smooth!

    Questions on smooth shell development

    Also I just bought shell saver from amazon. Just wondering if it is necessary to use it to promote better smooth shell growth. If so, how do I use this product. Once a week? Everyday? Let dry? Or wipe off?
