Best Answer

This is something that needs pictures and more information. Do you have a basking spot for your turtle? Why species of turtle is it? How much water does it live in? Does your water have a lot chlorine? How old is it? Is it an albino turtle? Is your turtle wheezing or have mucus coming out of its eyes or nose?

There is so much information needed before anyone can even begin to answer that question for you.

What does it mean when you dream of white turtle?

There is a sophomoric prank called "white turtle" that is similar to "mooning" others, but done while in the water. It involves dropping one's pants and exposing one's buttocks to others. If this is the "white turtle" in your dream, it means that you feel that you are being disrespected and mocked by someone. Alternatively, if your dream is about an actual white animal, that suggests innocence and purity. The turtle reflects your introverted nature which others perceive as hiding inside your shell. Your mind might use the white turtle image to prod you to be more outgoing and communicative with others.


What is the green stuff on my red eared slider turtle's shell?

We had young red-ear sliders several years ago and the white stuff you see may simply be that your turtle is growing, and shedding old skin. It floats as they swim and could be mistaken for some type of white algae or fungus, I suppose. If the turtle otherwise seems happy and healthy, I would assume that's what it is. Good luck!
