Hi bro kougry,
I suggest that you visit http://www.redearslider.com/index_health.html and read up to identify the condition and illness of your terrapin first. If the illness is critical, you might need to bring it to the vet. Just my 2 cents, hope it will recover soon... By the way, is the picture showing the tank which your terrapin is kept in? |

Any way the eyelids looked swollen, it could be due to the water parameters, whats your water reading for ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, pH and most importantly is your tank cycled? Another important 1 is what kind of filtration system is present in your setup? If your turtle is really down with fungus i would recommend "Japanese yellow powder" or "rid all anti fungus". Here are the pics Hope it helps, but can you provide more pics close up of the infected area for more bros to advice. Last edited by PNT Guy; 01-03-2011 at 08:04 PM. |

Also, diet plays a huge part. Do give high vit A food to your RES but no point now since they are unlikely to be eating now. As such, a vet is the best bet. |
