I have a 5 month old baby red foot who has an upper respiratory problem. I bought him when he was three months old. I took it to the vet last Saturday and they found out he had parasites that caused him to become debilitated and subsequently caused an upper respiratory infection. He was put on medication for the parasites and that has improved. On Tuesday, he was back at the vet to get meds for upper respiratory. The vet put him on azithromycin. She told me to keep him in a small area and keep it hot 80-90 and humid 80-90%. I have him in a twenty gallon long fish tank and had problems keeping the humidity at 80-90% so i bought a fogger. That made him worse. Now the vet said just to keep his habitat sprayed down. The humidity gauge only registers 70%. I am very confused because people are telling me to take him out of the fish tank and put him in a turtle tub. I think I would even have more problems keeping the right temps and humidity if I do this. Any feedback would help.
