I have two res and have learned SO much from this board(my turts thank you!!). I got them as hatchlings and was concerned because one stopped eating, wasn't growing and was just plain sad. I took him to the vet(the day I noticed him listing to one side) and they said he has pneumonia and would probably not make it more than a couple of days. He is a tiny turtle and had a pretty bad case. I had to give him a shot in the leg every other day, Vit A and D drops once a day and force feed him 3 times a day. I put himin a seperate tank and kept the water a little on the worm side(80). I kept him in a quiet room to reduce stress and guess what!?!?! About a week ago he started eating on his own!! Now for my question....When can I put him back in the big tank with Shelly? He's been eating for a week on his own now. The other tank is so much bigger and has a basking dock that he actually likes. His little tank has a river rock to bask on but I don't think he really likes it becasue I have never seen him on it. So is it too soon to put him back in the big tank wiith the other turtle?
Thanks for your help.
