As I have mentioned before my turtles have bad shell rot. I have dry docked them and now portions of their shell appear to be flaking. Should I peel these off or leave them?
You should peel them off so that the water trapped underneath them do not become breeding ground for bacteria. -Chun — In diamondbackterrapins@yahoogroups.com, “accordionterp”
