Hi Everyone, I'm sure many of you saw some of my posts in the forum already, but I haven't properly introduce myself yet. I'm just a college student who owns my turtle for about 3 and half years, I got him from Pet Lovers when he was just an inch

his name is "Pineapple"(In my language it means bring happiness to the family), unfortunately he is recently being diagnosed to have MBD(Metabolic Bone Disease) :cry:

so his size remain relatively small, which is why I'm joining this forum to learn whatever I can to make my turtle feel better.

To reverse MBD, I believe you should get a uvb bulb that of 10% or bring it outside for undirect sunlight.

Hi and Welcome. Sorry to hear about your turtle..

In case you don't know what causes MBD or how to treat it.. there's a great section on the main website about this.
