Change water: There are red spots on pig-nosed turtles, which may be due to poor water quality. At this time, one third of the water needs to be changed to improve the water quality. Soak in crude salt solution: At this time, the diseased fish should be fished out and soaked in 25% crude salt solution for 15-20 minutes every day. Moderate cooling: If the temperature is too high, it will cause strong irritation to the skin of pig-nosed turtles, causing them to grow red spots. At this time, it is necessary to slowly reduce the water temperature of the turtle tank and control the water temperature at about 25 ℃.
What is the reason for the red dot on the pig nose turtle and how to do it 1. Change water

1. Reason: If the turtle tank is not changed frequently, the water quality will deteriorate. At this time, bacteria and viruses in the water will multiply in large numbers, which will easily infect pig-nosed turtles and make them feel uncomfortable, and their bodies will be covered with red spots.

2. Treatment method: Replace one third of the water in the turtle tank, and pay attention to the fact that the water quality and temperature of the replaced water should not differ much from the water quality of the new water. In addition, you can also add a filter in the turtle tank to purify the water quality and reduce the number of water changes.

2. Soak in crude salt solution

1. Reason: When pig nose turtle is infected with skin diseases by germs, its body will be covered with little red dots. Most infected pig-nosed turtles can't recover by themselves and need to be treated with drugs.

2. Treatment: Fish out the sick pig-nosed turtles to prevent their viruses from infecting other turtles. Then soak them in 25% crude salt solution for 15-20 minutes every day. Until they recover, put back the turtles.

3. Moderate cooling

1. Reason: Pig-nosed turtles are temperature-changing animals. When they are raised at too high a temperature, their skin will be stimulated, and at this time they will be covered with little red dots.

2. Treatment method: Water with slightly lower temperature can be slowly added to the turtle tank, but the difference should not be too large, so as to slowly reduce the water temperature of the turtle tank until about 25 ℃.
