It is a very BAD idea to keep turles and fish together in captivity i know lots do it and have no trouble i use to keep an arowana with a turtle and it wasant long till all i had was the bones of my arowana as the turle ate him sadly and it also ate my tyre track eal as well. My rtc if she found anything she couldant eat or fit in her mouth it would end up being killed from being smashed agains the side of even thrown out of the pond. So in my opinion keep fish with fish and turtles with turtels!

thats technically impossible, unless it ate the whole tail first. Knowing Turtle's mating rituals, its more likely for one to be decapitated before its castrated
getting back to the subject, I things its possible that a RTC would eat a RES.
once the turtle has retracted into the shell, its presents an easy meal to swallow, although Its hard to imagine a fish regarding a hard turtle shell as a meal.

RTC's eat stones accidentally so why would a turtles shell prove impossible? I'd say it's plausible, only the mythbusters can bust this though... Lol! :-D
