One female caramel pink albino red-eared slider stopped eating for over one week. She died the next day. She had multiple skin burns on the legs and sides, from over 10 hours of exposure to ultra-violet light daily for past weeks.  The male slider also had exposure and burns as seen in the image and video. He died the next day.

The ultraviolet light and warm light bulbs were positioned around one-foot away from the surface of the water and was kept on for the whole day.  


Both sliders passed away the next day after admission.
