Ive always had a thing for turtles i always used to find them in my back yard but now that i got into tanks and i have 2 spare ones sitting around, what are some fish turtles can live with without bulying or getting bullied? sorry fi this is a weird question or somthing but thanks in advance
 
Not many. Most aquatic turtles are opportunists and if hungry enough, will chase any fish they think they can eat. Even if the fish are pretty large, you may still have nipped and shredded fins. I personally wouldn't try any expensive fish with them. Try large comets and see how they do.
 
i have some live bearer feeders in with my res its fun to watc them chase them but they havn't got em yet
convicts work good in atleast a 55
anything you wont care if it gets eaten
no good fish
 
All of the turtles I've kept have either eaten inhabitants or taken pieces out of them no matter how large the fish is, haha. I'd just try the feeder goldfish route as well so the investment isn't too high. At worst case, you'll have a constant supply of food in the tank.
