I noticed my girl is getting to be quite large. She’s almost 3 yrs old and in a 75 gallon tank. I just measured her and she came in at just about 7.2 inches wide. I unfortunately can’t go above 75!! I’m not sure what to do here. I have trouble trusting centers or organizations I find online. I would love if anyone has any suggestions, Chicagoland area if that’a gonna be of any help.

PLS READ(This picture was taken a couple months ago and I am aware of the retained scutes, I transitioned her to a variety of mostly greens and she is currently shedding!!! She has been for the past month and a half…T-T Her shell is doing better though!!)

please help!! i got this gorgeous boy back in november and i think he has developed dropsy :( I am fasting him for a few days just in case it’s from overeating, but I saw what looked like the start of pine-coning (i only saw it when he was turning though, and didn’t see much from a top-down angle)

is there anything i can do? water parameters seem fine, if it’s not overeating it might be bacterial ☹️ i worry this might be from the food i gave him yesterday as i got the wrong package of frozen food and had to give him some blood worms (i figured it was fine since i don’t do it that often but i am in north america so i also want to consider that as a possibility) usually he eats frozen brine shrimp

second pic is what he looked like about a month ago, if it is dropsy i want to stop it before it gets worse!!!
