Hi all

We bought an aquatic turtle about one month ago. Since thursday we got him a real turtle aquarium. But since some days we noticed a substance on his shield which was minor at the begininning but yesterday when i tried to clean him it looked like it was his shield dissolving? His belly is also very soft like pudding and his shield as well.
Could someone help me?

Is there a landing area where he can get out of the water to sit under the light and dry off?

I'll send an alert to one of our water turtle people - @Markw84
