just wondering what people have to say, they are no bigger then 2 inch across in shell length. and as of now r in a 40 breeder. what do u guys think will happen ? they will soon b upgraded to a small indoor pond i have. and does any one have either with fish i will one day try it i think n see what goes down.thnx
 
don't do it. Many soft shells become very aggressive after getting just a bit of size to them.
 
iv herd maps are prone to sickness, and do not normally mix well with others until they are larger
 
thnx. so far so good. the map is clueless to the softshell as of now. but the soft shell swam with the map for a little under him just checking the new guy out n then left him alone. n hasent come close to him. i will keep a good eye on them. will post pics with time.
 
Nope, bad idea. Soft shells are weak when small, and very violent when getting bigger. For a temporary measure, it will do. But do be responsible, get them each into a suitable tank, soft shells get large. Not too sure about the map.

relax? you wanted our advice, you decided not to take it at the risk of both your animals. were scared your gonna kill one or the other and by your tone you obviously dont care.

No one was accusing you or even had a harsh tone with you but I bet that you will be getting some now that you took this tone.

It is kinda annoying when people come and ask advice but blatantly ignore it though.
 
no one took a tone...ight but im doing it as said in the thread so who wants to hear every one say dnt do it...im doing it already thats y i made the thread. people say dnt try putting a bunch of fish together but i try it...discus n loach with rays n aros polyz gars n sevrums all in one tank.... n it works every one dreaded the idea...lol n the turtles are doing great not a problem yet...n dnt get me wrong i love my animals and i care greatly...thats y i keep a close eye on them when i do try some thing out for the first time...i just hate to hear every ones negativity...sry
