Depends on who you ask.

A reptile guru will tell you they need UV/basking spot..

A fish guru will say they can be kept fully aquatic..

Up to you to make the decision of which is right to you.

You're very knowledgeable when it comes to fish but I don't know about turtles. The typical sinensis maxes out at about 10".

Besides the fact that I've seen eaten dozens of them over over 15 inches from the turtle soup stall downstairs, my neightbour also has one 30" from top of shell to bottom of shell, there are really old ones weighing 45kg in the link below.

Max out at 10"?

Earlier this year, scientists concluded that she was the planet's last known female giant Yangtze soft-shell turtle.

Hands down the coolest little turts I have ever seen. The wifey tried to trip on the $ but when they landed she was hooked. You guys better buy yours now she might talk me into buying the rest. Thanks again Wes, been wanting some of these for a while. Now, just have to grow them out so they can swim with the leopoldis. Here are some horrible pics that do the turts no justice.
