It is commonly known as rotten shell. One is that the water quality is too bad and not cleaned in time. The other is that there are stones in the turtle tank. Remove the stones and put in driftwood! Clean the water and it will get better by itself! If the condition is not good and worsens, use 3% potassium permanganate solution to disinfect for half an hour every day.
