sifus, anyone,
i need to know something about my western painteds
i've got 2 of them, eating well, active, have basking area & lights, everything is ok, but i find their carapace & plastrons has this "transparent plastic looking layer" which can be peeled off easily!
wat are those? it sort of like when we eat prawns in da restaurant and we peel off da shell thing before we eat? exactly like those same material, its on my turtle scutes & the plastrons.

it annoys me really.. now da red colors on their plastrons are not so striking anymore.. =_= looks like its light orange color now..

i feed them 'sera raffy p', calcium, & uvb. no uva, but my other 7 turtles dun hav these probs before, its the first time i see this kinda thing @_@

dun think its recomended to have other turtle species together with ur AST, as it may harm the other species. unless u get another AST to live together but provided u have enough room for them both

ur AST is not lonely.. his got his feeder fish frens! which will be eaten, but ur gonna restock them anyway

oh ok hehehe anyway I bought them from Toby reptiles

oh no, i mean da KL toby, 2nd outlet

maybe they're not used to da new enviroment yet i guess.. since they're still babies, put them in a smaller container but enough room for them to move around, then use masking tape or the black tape, and tape around the tank so they cant see da outside world (if ur container is transparent), this will prevent them from stress, trying to swim out of da container, i think this will calm them down.

just my opinion

hi, i think you should keep your water clean at all time, especially now when its sick now, if this is not treated well, it might lead ur RES to blindness. take ur RES to a vet as soon as possible.
oh and.. i think feeding it shrimp is not suitable as they might get choked buy the shrimp's head, which has a horn-like thing as hard as its shell.

not too sure if its their normal behavior, i have 3 stars outdoor too, especially my oldest one which is 21 yrs old, i bet he must have ate lots of worms :-X , he is healthy tho.

Added on April 2, 2010, 11:13 amhmm.. try putting less water like maybe above its head, are the fiishes too big for him? o_O, cuz i think water shudnt b a problem, mine use normal tap water without anti chlorine also still good. i've got filter.. but before this i dint put filter still good, they're quite hardy actually @_@ try provide it with a hiding spot? cuz mine always try to hide under rocks... or else take it to da vet asap..
