Can you keep turtles and fish in the fish tank at the same time?

Turtles and fish can't be kept in a fish tank at the same time. Fish is the main food of turtles. If the two are put together, the fish will definitely die.

Because turtles are omnivores, they also eat fish, meat and other foods. Therefore, if aquatic turtles are raised with fish, turtles may kill the fish. Therefore, it is usually recommended to keep ornamental fish and soft-shelled turtles separately. If it is a terrestrial turtle, it generally does not need to stay in the water for a long time.

Animals that can be mixed with turtles

Turtles can be mixed with similar animals, which can improve the good interaction between turtles. In the selection of species, the pig-nosed turtle is preferred. Because of its laziness, it does not require high growth environment and will not take the initiative to attack other species. In addition, individuals are cute, so many families will give priority to pig-nosed turtles.

Brazilian tortoises can be mixed with map tortoises, golden turtles or Brazilian yellow-eared turtles. These turtles are similar to Brazilian turtles in character and habits, and will not take the initiative to attack Brazilian turtles. However, Brazilian tortoises can't be raised with grass tortoises, because their body shapes are very different, and it is easy to bully small ones if they are raised together.
