How to Treat and Prevent Water Mold Disease in Turtles
Water mold disease (saprolegniasis), caused by Saprolegnia and Achlya fungi, is a common illness in aquatic turtles that usually strikes during overwintering and spring. Infected turtles may lose appetite, grow weak, and develop gray-white patches and fuzzy white growths on the skin; severe cases lead to emaciation, swelling, skin ulcers, and even death from exhaustion. Because the fungus is widespread in water and hard to eliminate, prevention focuses on keeping the turtle injury-free, maintaining water temperature around 28–30°C, and providing regular sunlight. If infection occurs, dry-docking the turtle with short daily soaking, applying povidone-iodine for disinfection, and using a pet-safe antibacterial ointment on affected areas can aid recovery.
