works well
This is not a miracle worker, you have to keep your tank and filter clean regularly, however adding this weekly and with all water changes makes a big difference in the tank of our red-eared slider.

Happy turtle
I was really scared when i saw puffy eyes on my turtle & they stop eating. I also consulted the shop where i got turtles he told me my water must be the problem with my water & recommended to give salt baths But salt baths were getting nothing. I did some research & came to this product & i must say, within 2 days my turtles started opening their eyes & started eating food. I would recommend all tuetle owners to buy this. One must take care about the dosages as i use less water in the tank, just 1-2 drops in water is enough.

Expensive but worth it for the peace of mind
My turtle had a fleshy part showing on the back of his head from my other turtle biting him and holding him. I was worried about it getting infected but between keeping the tank clean and using turtle fix, he healed well.

Was already opened
Normally I buy these when I need to and they’ve all been fine except this time it seems like someone opened the safety seal on the turtle fix and some spilled in the box. Not a lot but I noticed the immediate smell when I opened the box and yea they took the safety seal off so I don’t really want to use this. When it isn’t opened it works well and has helped my turtle a lot when he needs it.

Love it!
Very pleasant smell and it foams up a little. No issues with my RES when I rub the fix on its shell – rather it enjoys it.

used this for my 20 gallon Turtle tank ..Works well . absolutely does what it says
I needed some help with my turtle tank to keeping it cleaner in between water changes .. I came across this product.. it has all natural ingredients.. you can use it with water changes or you can add it extra if it needs a good cleaning .. I have put it actually into the turtle filter . it mixes with the water it’s also very fragrance free . it’s natural and does not bother the turtles still don’t use too much . I have a tank that is 20 gallons and I have two baby turtles only a couple of months old… I used at most two cap fulls . but usually I use just one half capful every 7 to 10 days … I would recommend and would repurchase

Healed my RES turtle’s in just a week.
My Red Eared Slider (water turtle) developed deep splits in her shell. My vet said it was from an inadequate diet. This surprised me since I’ve had her for 23 years. I was feeding her raw beef, cooked shrimp and occasionally, raw chicken. While I worked on that problem, I changed her water twice a day and added the suggested amount of API TURTLE FIX each time. Her splits healed quickly. I wasn’t expecting it to work, but it really did. Just 11 days later, her spits were completely mended. She’s a very stubborn turtle, but I managed to change her diet to high nutrition pellets. She hates me now, but she’s healed up, and a lot healthier.

My turtle got her foot caught in the filter intake tube. Her whole leg swelled and looked infected. I thought she would die for sure. No joke in 7 days she was totally healed. This stuff is magic!

It’s supposed to neutralize nitrites created by my turtle’s poop and urine
Well, the liquid is not smelly, nor slippery, nor mucous. It is just like water. I can not really tell if it’s doing it’s work. I own a water turtle about 6 in. long, but you do not need to use much for 4 gal, just one tbsp. I mix it with my hands and wash them afterwards. I only feel relief that I can use tap water and neutralize the clorine that is in it, and that the nitrites created by the turtle’s residues are also neutralized, because I change it’s water every 3 to 5 days as it gets sort of cloudy and mushy.My turtle is happy and healthy 😛

Used for an eye infection on a yellow belly slider, put this in the water but at a much weaker dose than stated. Vast difference in the infection in just 24hrs, more or less gone after 3 days. Definitely works!

I have to say, I love this! It actually works! I use this for my nieces big turtle tank (which I used to wash every 2weeks) coz tank used to get sludges and cloudy! This definitely does the job, even when the tank is dirty, it keeps the water clear.

Molto utile
Prodotto arrivato molto prima della data indicata. Utilissimo per risolvere il problema alla pelle della mia tartaruga acquatica. Nella bottiglia non è indicata la diluizione, da una ricerca ho capito che 1 mm di prodotto va diluito in 6 litri di acqua.
