Today I noticed a bubble on my 3 year old male RES it was under water it happened a few times after he came up for air I read this was a sigh of respiratory infection he quickly rubbed it off could it be respiratory infection? He seems to be swimming fine.

Bubbles from the nose or mouth when a turtle is out of the water would be worrisome, especially with other symptoms. Your turtle has no other symptoms? My turtles sometimes make bubbles underwater, but that doesn't mean they have RIs.

No other symptoms but the bubble is suck to the tip of his nose. Thanks for the help.

Ny turtle sometimes has a tiny bubble on the tip of her nose when she goes up for some air, then quickly coming back down. I think it's normal
