I don't know what happened, one day my turtle is fine, the next I find it all puffed up floating on the top of the water. I had just done a water change about 2/3. There was some algea, I used stress coat to kill the algea. I just want to know what went wrong and if my other turtle is in any danger?
Thanks

Just some notes:
Stress Coat doesn't kill algae, it's just to help fish. If you don't have any fish, don't use it.
Algae doesn't hurt turtles, although if you have a bunch of it you may want to check your water quality (ammonia levels, ect.)
