How can you tell if your turtle’s aquarium has salmonilla? Effective treatment without vet?
My turtle ate my favorite large, fish 
and ever since, the aquarium has not looked clean. I have cleaned the filters over and again. It looks like there are a ton of little white things floating on the top of the water. Could the tank be infected by salmonella? If so, any way to effectively scrub it out without being at risk of getting sick? I’ve put off cleaning it out of a lack of an effective way to kill the bacteria if its there. But, the question still remains if I’m just a hypochondriac.
There’s a little bit about salmonella on this page : http://www.austinsturtlepage.com/Info/info.htm if you scroll down. Everything I’ve read is that the best way to deal with salmonella is to simply wash your hands very well after handling your turtle and it’s habitat.
Your better bet is to ask at a reptile forum, where the people really know their stuff.. here’s a couple:
