Hey guys!
i suppose my little fella has some slight hard water stains on his shell and i wanted to ask if it's just an aesthetic problem or if it does also affect his health?
in some threads on here it got recommmended to put carefully on some cold pressed coconut oil what i did yesterday and then i softly cleaned him so im gonna wait if this helps..
i use a soft baby toothbrush everyday but it really doesnt go away with it that's why im asking if its a problem for the tortoise?
on his plastron is nothing so i dont assume its shell fungus
ps. someone already told me that he has slight pyramiding but he was like this when i got him and since then he has the correct lighting and humidity with over 85% all the time so when he grows it shouldnt be a problem from now on.
thanks for everyone taking time to take a look at it
