Are the white mineral deposits in my turtle's tank bad for its health?

Question

Are mineral deposits harmful to a turtle. Pet's info: Reptile | Aquatic Turtle

Angel Alvarado, LVT · Accepted Answer

Not usually. If you have hard water, you can use a water conditioner or softener for water to use for water changes. A chunk of driftwood can also help soften the water if you don't mind a bit of discoloration. Use a soft bristled toothbrush to scrub off deposits.
