My RES turtle won't eat

Also note this recent thread: http://www.turtletimes.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=67589
This has been happening with a lot of the compact (spiral) UVB fluorescent bulbs.
You can remove UVB for 2 weeks, then start using a good UVB bulb. I honestly don't know much on the subject because I use a mercury vapor bulb.

I dont think this was caused by too much uv but rater by the bad condicions this turtles are normaly kept at pet stores wich makes them vulnerable to patogens they would normaly be resistent at. Also its allways good to remenbar baby turts are delicate beings, people should only buy healty yearlings, a much safer investiment, or get adult rescued animals
