Great Help with Turtles

by Dave Block at Citysearch

My daughter was given 3 red-eared turtles, and we had them in an aquarium at the house. One day, while cleaning their tank, she noticed some rather large, clear flakes on the bottom. Wanting to make sure they didn't have some disease, we took them for a check-up at All Creatures. They did a thorough examination, and told us that they were healthy and growing, and that the debris on the bottom were scales that they were shedding as they got bigger. We had peace of mind knowing that there was nothing wrong. We thank the doctors and staff at All Creatures for knowing their animals -- whether common, or not-so common. We appreciate you being there when we needed it!
