Thanks for reaching out about Napoleon and including photos. At first appearance, this could be hard water deposits, do they scratch off with a fingernail. Check and correct water quality, you might have to change to filtered or bottled water. There are some genetic problems here noted by the dorsal shell, as the middle scutes are not lined up. Monitor for symmetrical growth. Good luck.
