I've seen some owners rehabilitate tortoises by giving them water therapy. I was wondering:
1. In which cases would water therapy be considered for a tort? Only severe situations like advanced MBD or just for general health?
2. Does species play a factor? (Eg. RFs and other tropical species are good candidates, desert species are not)
3. Have you personally tried it, and if so, was it successful? Did the tort respond well?
I can definitely see the benefits it would have on cardiovascular, digestive and renal health (and more) but I wanted input from people that actually have experience.
