It will be fine not eating for a week? I'm just afraid it might be something internal.

Alright thanks! Hope it'll come good soon and start eating. By the way, what do you guys feed it? A mix of vegetables and meat i suppose?

I stop feeding meat since the internal parasite incident mentioned the previous thread. Now all on fruits and hikari turtle food sticks with occasional hard boiled egg white for protein. Mine doesn't seem to take veg. Haha

Mine is just on Hikari algae wafers. They cannot take a high protein diet. Other good food is nutrafin turtle pellet
