Hi Joe, glad you can join us! A word of advice, stop using the VitaShell. It's believed to cause shell problems (not allowing it to "breath") and most topical treatments should be cleaned off the turtle before it's placed back into water.

Welcome!
Must have been quite an adventure raising a little guy from when he first entered the world. Just be careful, he may believe he is human and want the car keys when he is 16 :)
