Keep turtles guard against lime poisoning

Many turtle-guiding people mistake the low toxicity of lime for non-toxicity. When disinfection is performed in clear ponds, excessive use of large doses and short withdrawal times often occur within two days. A large amount of lime remains in the bottom mud of the pool and it is difficult to rinse cleanly. Turtles in the turtle feed pool agitate the mud at the bottom of the pool, and the quick lime remaining in the mud is released into the water, causing a rapid increase in the pH of the water body. In general, a pH greater than 9.5 results in lime poisoning of the turtle.

Turtle Lime Poisoning The main symptoms: the turtle just entered the pool immediately dug sand mud, due to the mud in the pH value is too high, and immediately drilled mud, and some climbed to the drying platform, and some desperately climbing along the pool wall, Climb to a certain extent and fall into the water. Some heads swim above the water level. At this time, the turtle reacted slowly to the outside world. Lime-intoxicated turtles are severely dehydrated in the neck, abdomen, and extremities, and their skin is tight and their eyes tightly closed. If you immediately put in clear water, your eyes can open and you can survive, otherwise you will not be able to save it.

Turtle Lime Poisoning Prevention Methods: 1 use quicklime to clear the pool, put turtles to master the time, generally to be placed in the rear 7 days after the turtle; 2 the use of lime should not be too large, the concentration is usually not more than 500ppm; 3 the use of quicklime disinfection of the pool After the injection, pay attention to observe the time of day. If poisoning is found, change the water in large quantities in time until the pH of the water is lower than 8.0. 4 Use a 5%~10% saline solution to bathe for one day to prevent the bacteria from re-infection.
