    White lines on/under shell of Russian tortoise

    My russian tortoise has had the white squiggles that seem to be under the shell for some time. He shows no signs of being ill, doesn't smell bad so I don't suspect fungus, and loves his food and bath time. Please have a look and tell me if it's a nutritional deficiency or if he needs more UVA/UVB.
