My turtle chloe has some, what appears to be a white discoloration along the middle of the top part of her shell. i have also noticed some whites spots on parts of her shell.
She is about 1.5 inches long
I have had her about 2 and a half weeks now
her water temperature is 80 degrees F
i used a thermometer
i do not have a water heater yet
the tank has about 5 gallons
i don't know if it counts, but i am using a bacteria/enzyme treatment to help break down sludge and waste
i am using a reptofilter with 125GPH
Her basking temp is at 85-90 during the day, but at night i shut off the bulbs
yes there is a basking light
the platform is easy to walk onto
the platform is a floating zoomed drydock, and i forgot what they make it out of
there is a uvb/uva bulb with approx. 10.0 watts
she is eating normally
i feed her two reptomin turtle food sticks every morning and one every night
the aquarium is 10 gallons
it is away from any windows
the tank is in my living room
i have read the basic care section
i couldn't find anything on this, or i'm just blind
she does act normal, swims around alot, but she doesn't seem to bask very often
what i am concerned most is, again, the white discoloration on the top of the shell, along with a pinkish color on the bottom half of the shell
