Hi, thanks for yr concern..
other than yawning.. her eyes kinda swollen and constantly basking.. im not sure she can swim or not.. cuz everytime i put her inside the water.. she will swim toward the basking area..
will post some pict tonight..
are there any pet vet in klang area? >.<

Looks good ? except for the slightly swollen eye ?

There's growth meaning it was eating before you got it - care to show or narrate a bit on where the whole setup is placed ?

Cheers

im a beginner.. not sure is this tank good enough for them..
since im living in hostel plus small room.. there is no space to put a larger tank.. >.<

Tank setup is good - filter , water and basking now another piece of vital information that may br the cause !

Aircond in room ? Or celling fan on top of tank ?

Cheers

hmm.. not really sure if the water and basking is the problem.. when i bought them from the pet shop.. the seller put them in a basin.. water is less the 1 inch plus no basking area.. =="
the other two are fine.. eating machine.. =3=
just the big 1 hve problem..
thinking to bring the big 1 to the vet.. but i dnt knw where..

nope.. no aircon.. table fan are opposite direction from them.. ceiling fan quite far..

From my experience, local fish shops that sell these turtles are generally not too concerned about proper living conditions for them, so we shouldn't use their set ups as a benchmark.

Having said that, I too believe your set up is good enough, at least until these fellas outgrow your tank, which would be sooner than you think.

If I'm not mistaken, RI is contagious to the other turtles, so you may need to start segregating the guy with it from the other 2.

Perhaps it's also prudent to purchase a thermometer to monitor their water temperature, a cheap one should do.

Ulam Raja for the king

yeah.. totally agree with u.. they dont really concern about them..
"aiya.. they dont need big bekas one.. small bowl with little water is ok dy.." that what they say to me.. =="

so.. i need to seperate her from the others? how? still need to bring them to the vet or any pet shop selling medic for them?

yeah.. planning to buy heater and basking lamp.. my lighting not really create enough heat.. zzz.. do you know where can i buy stuff such as basking lamp, turtle food etc online?

Lowyat here got many. See the for sale thread.

We buy most of our lighting equipment here.

Will measure and take some photos when I get back to them on Monday

I bought one before, but I recall that the water is always warm enough despite being indoors. Eventually the turtles breached the battery cap, letting water in followed by massive corrosion

hi guys.. is this some kind of disease? the 1 i that i just bought hve this on his shell.. and his shell kinda soft too.. when i ask the seller.. she say "SALIN KULIT"..
is it true? and the one that i hve been petting for 2 weeks.. start to hve this symptom too..
is there any cure? >.<
ASAP reply if anyone know about this..

Start of a type of " shell rot " will spread to all other turtles around sharing its enclosure !! End of last year and early this year import has that ( or at least 50% or more )

Need treatment if not the " white" will spread to almost 100% of the shell if the turtle did not die first !!

As these guys are still small and some of them still has shell that has not harden they dont really respond well to most if not any treatment !!

Cheers
