Turtles are suspected to have water mold, what is turtle water mold?

Is it peeling or water mold? You have to figure it out, my turtle also has something similar to hyphae when it sheds its skin, are you sure it's water mold?

Generally, water mold disease is due to the fact that the turtle has a ** wound, and if it is not medicated in time, it is infected with water mold and grows white hyphae. Then the turtle does not want to go into the water, stays in a dry place all day, and then slowly eats less, and in the end it stops eating.

If yes, the first step. Soak in salt water for 30 minutes, step 2. "Povidone-iodine solution" is applied to disinfect the whole body (pharmacies have it, it is very cheap); Step 3.

Do not soak, apply the affected area with malachite green ointment or "Baiduo bundle ointment", dry raising, mold is afraid of dryness, but pay attention to let the turtle enter the water for 1 to 2 hours every day to moisturize, drink, eat, and excrete.

It should be noted that eating shrimp can aggravate the condition.

If you molt, you can bask in the sun more, and you'll be fine.

Give your turtle the symptoms of water mold, you can see if it is.

Fungi such as water mold and cotton mold existing in water bodies parasitize turtle bodies and cause diseases. It occurs throughout the year, but it is more common in autumn, winter and spring, and generally the turtle body is the first to suffer from injury, and it can be seen that the diseased turtle body is attached to the gray-white cotton wool-like mycelium, which is floating in the water, and it has a slippery feeling when touched by hand. Sick turtles lose their appetite; Increasing emaciation, and in severe cases, congestion until ulceration, resulting in death, especially in young turtles.

As long as the prevention and treatment is timely, there is basically no mortality.

**Method: Help him wash and bask in the sun more, don't use tap water to raise him in the future, use pure water.

What color of cotton wool, how can I judge if you don't say it.

Water mold. Also known as white hair), its causative agent.

Mainly water molds and molds, which parasitize on the wounds and eggs of the fish body, are the more common fish diseases. **Mainly the fish body is injured, the scales fall off, etc., resulting in the invasion of germs into the wound.

**: Turtles live in water or dark and damp places for a long time, and are not suitable for water quality, and are caused by fungal infection of the turtle body surface.

Diagnosis: Infection begins with no abnormalities and is followed by loss of appetite, physical weakness, or death from hibernation. As the disease progresses, grayish-white spots appear on the body surface, head, limbs, and tail.

Commonly known as "raw hair", the epidermis swells, ulcerates, necrosis or falls off, and dies quickly.

**: Prepare the sick turtle with 4% salt water for 10 minutes and use potassium permanganate solution.

Soak and disinfect the feeding containers. At the same time, an appropriate amount of antibiotics should be mixed into the food to improve the resistance of the turtle. Turtles can also be reared in 1% achithromycin solution for a period of time, which also has a good effect.

Precautionary measures

1) Remove excessive silt from the bottom of the pond and disinfect it.

2) Strengthen feeding management, feed comprehensive nutrition and high-quality feed, and sprinkle compound photosynthetic bacteria.

Yulei fungus, maintain excellent and stable water quality, and raise turtles and turtles to be robust.

3) Try to avoid injuries to turtles and turtles; In greenhouse breeding, it should be noted that the temperature and water should not be much different, especially for juvenile turtles; Try to shorten the overwintering fasting period, before wintering, we must be the soft-shelled turtle body disease**, and strengthen the feeding management, the soft-shelled turtle will be healthy before wintering.

Turtle water mold disease is mainly caused by water mold and cotton mold, winter and spring are the disease season, and young turtles are a high incidence group of water mold disease.

The disease is caused by small white spots on the body of the diseased turtle, which slowly expand into white spots, and the body has white cotton-like hyphae, which are smooth to the touch. During illness, it will manifest as sluggishness, loss of appetite, emaciation, and in severe cases, the neck and limbs will be covered with water mold, and finally stop feeding, and die of exhaustion.

Water mildew disease is a secondary disease, and the turtle will only be infected after it is injured, so as long as the feeding management is strengthened and the injury is avoided as much as possible, the occurrence of water mildew disease can still be avoided.

The owner should often clean and disinfect its breeding environment, feed the turtle nutritious and high-quality feed, and strengthen its scientific management. In the process of feeding, try to avoid injuries to the turtle's body; The temperature of the room and the water should not differ too much. If the turtle is injured, you should immediately give it antibacterial and anti-inflammatory to speed up wound healing, and you can give antibiotics.

Turtle water mildew disease** method:

1. In the early stage of the disease, you can put the turtle in the sandbox, cover its body with sand, and sunbathe for 30-60 minutes, once a day, depending on the condition.

2. Mix 3% salt water and 3% baking soda liquid, soak the sick turtle for 20-30 minutes, 2-3 times a day, until it recovers.

3. Apply 1% sulfonamide ointment to the disease, rinse it in clean water after 2 minutes (wash off the excess drug), then put it back to feeding, and repeat the drug again after 3-4 days, and the number of days of medication depends on the actual situation.

The water quality of the turtle box is so clean, why are the eight grass turtle seedlings still suffering from water mold? What causes turtle water mildew? What do I need**? All 8 seedlings had water mildew.

Dry rearing: When keepers find that turtles are suffering from water mold, they need to be removed from the water and placed in a moist environment to dry rear, which can inhibit the spread of water mold. When dry raising, you need to soak in water regularly to avoid dehydration.

Medicating: Breeders can use potreiodarone to smear the whole body, which can play a role in sterilization and disinfection. Then apply malachite green and Baiduobang to the affected area, and wait for the affected area to self**.

There are many reasons why turtles can develop water mildew, which are described in detail below:

1. Trauma: Turtles suffering from water mold may be caused by trauma, if their carapace is injured, not in time, it is easy to be infected with water mold, because the wound is the best place for water mold to invade and multiply.

2. Bacterial infection: It may also be caused by bacterial infection, which will lead to bacterial breeding if the water is not changed for a long time. Hydromycosis is not easy to detect in the early stage, and we can only observe it when the hyphae appear on the surface. So by the time water mold is found, it has reached the middle or late stages.

For turtles with water mold, they can be soaked with 2%-3% salt water for 5-10 minutes a day. At the same time, the water temperature is raised and dried every night. Water mold spreads quickly, and healthy turtles need to be isolated from sick turtles in time to prevent water mold from being infected.

Turtles with water mold can be soaked in 2-3 percent salt water for 5-10 minutes once a day. At the same time, pay attention to keeping the water clean and raising the water temperature to inhibit the growth of water mold.

After suffering from water mold, turtles need to be dried and raised, such as normal breeding during the day, dry raising overnight, and then feeding in water the next morning, and so on until the water mold disappears.

Water mold is contagious and spreads very quickly, and if there are other turtles in the tank, they need to be isolated to avoid infecting other healthy turtles.

1.Potassium permanganate removal method: dilute potassium permanganate with water to make a dark red solution, then put the turtle in it and soak it for two minutes, then change to clean water.

Dry farming method: normal breeding during the day, do not release water after changing the water at night, dry raising for one night, and then release water to feed the next morning, so repeated for three days, can remove water mold.

Sun drying method: drain the water and bask in the sun for about 30 minutes every day.

Guilikang Bactericidal: After changing the water, pour a lid of Bactericide into each turtle box, and soak it continuously until the second water change.

2.Warming and dry culture: The principle of heating and dry culture is actually to use the characteristics of water mold to be afraid of high temperature and hydrophilic.

The frequency of water mold disease is directly related to the temperature, and usually the water mold multiplies vigorously in warm water of 13 18. But once the water temperature is above 26, the water mold is inhibited. Use of medications**

Commonly used drugs for turtle water mildew are: glutaraldehyde solution, povidone-iodine, sodium hypochlorite, etc., but it should be noted that frequent dressing changes and overdose medication should be made.

3.Before the turtle suffers from water mold, the person who raises the kettle should first make adjustments to the water quality and water temperature, so as to effectively avoid the breeding of water mold. During the period, you need to wipe the turtle's body with potassium permanganate or iodine, and then apply erythromycin ointment to achieve the **effect.

You can also mix raw meat and fresh vegetables in a container of Kocha, and add two slices of apples to prevent them from getting wet, too much water can cause turtles to become infected with water mold. The water temperature needs to be changed, and antibacterial and anti-inflammatory drugs should be added to the turtle in moderation.

Open the amoxicillin capsule, dissolve and dilute the powder, and put it into the Brazilian tortoise, not for a long time, and the concentration of the solution should not be too high.

Turtle water mold disease is mainly caused by water mold and cotton mold. Generally, Doufenglu occurs during the wintering period and spring. The main features are:

The body surface of the diseased turtle is partially whitish, and there are white cotton wool-like hyphae on the body, and the appetite is reduced, and the emaciation is weak. In severe cases, the neck and limbs are covered with water mold, and some of the lesion wounds are congested and ulcerated, and finally die of failure.

Prevention and control methods: First, strengthen feeding management and add nutrients such as vitamin E to the feed; The water quality of the breeding pond should be kept fresh, the bottom of the pond should not be hard and rough, and the turtle body should be avoided as much as possible from mechanical damage such as collision or abrasion.

Second, the injured turtle should be immediately antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, speed up wound healing, and be fed with antibiotics.

The third is to apply 1% sulfonamide ointment to the lesion, rinse it in clean water after 1 2 minutes, and then put it into the original pool to raise, and repeat the drug 1 time after 3 4 days.

The fourth is to soak the turtle body in 3% salt water and 3% baking soda liquid mixture for 20 30 minutes, and soak it 2 or 3 times a day until it is cured.

The treatment methods for turtles with water mold are: heating and dry raising, and the use of drugs**. The principle of this control method is to take advantage of the characteristics of water mold that are afraid of high temperatures and water addiction.

The frequency of water mold is directly related to the high temperature and low potato, and usually the water mold multiplies vigorously in warm water between 13 and 18. But once the water temperature is above 26, the water mold is inhibited. It is recommended that pet owners control the water temperature at about 28-30 and keep it constant until the water mold falls off, which generally takes about a week.

When raising the water temperature, you should slowly increase the temperature in an increment of about 2 per day. The Wormer.

<> turtle water mildew can be cured by dry culture. But turtles can't be dried all the time, and the germs may remain in many places, so even if they are raised, there is still a risk of **. If you want to completely ** water mildew, in addition to dry raising, you must also change the water frequently and bask in the sun more often.

If the condition is more serious, the whole body needs to be wiped with iodine, and the fish tank should be exposed to the sun and disinfected, and then rinsed again.
