The turtles seem to be holding on fairly well. They seem to have much more energy then they did have before I started treating them. When I first started they were practicaly lethargic. Now they are fighting me viciously when I try to treat them (it was easier to treat them when they were not fighting). Plus the eyes seem to be less swolen but still not able to open them to see, other then one it can sometimes open its eyes slightly. I actually think they may be getting better (I hope). I will be changing their water again today. I personaly believe that changing the water and replacing it with fresh tap water could help with the bacteria. I know that clorine in water kills bacteria. I think that the little bit in the water has to be more harm to the bacteria then to the turtles. I don't think I will be able to get to the other vet friday I won't get off work in time. Plus I don't know that vet I just stopped in to talk to her. Odds are she will want to have me bring them for an office visit and xrays and the whole red tape thing. Thanks for your concern for them.
