    Turtle advise ...

    I am going to have to disagree - although it depends on your perspective. On the one hand If your fish tank is for simply for fish and about the fish - than yes, why have a predator in there, some fish will be eaten. On the other hand, which is my point of view- my objective is to create an...

    Turtle advise ...

    You can keep fish with turtles - but be prepared for the fish to get eaten every once in a while- Some turtles will ignore fish completely- others will eat everything- if you have good hiding places - they will last for a while- if you get cheap fish- and count on one being missing every once...

Or do...
