Anyone here have experience with their turtles having respiratory problems? I have a year old res and a three month old maps both seriously ill. I can't get them to a proper vet.

The maps came down with something a few weeks back, started wheezing, and now floats. The res is sneezing/coughing, and it sounds pretty bad.

I need to know what the name is of the proper medicing to give them, so I can translate it into Chinese. Or I need to know what kind of anti-biotics/meds to give it, and how much. I'm quite sure they both caught pneumonia, or perhaps a parasite.

I live in Taiwan, and it's very frustrating caring for them.
