I have a softshell turtle which is given to me by my girlfriend for over a year now ,I've had her since she was just 2 inch ..now she is already about 8 inch and living harmoniously in 50 gallons in an african cichlid setup,
Till one day ive decided to transfer her onto my other tank with Knifefish, Redtail , santiwongsei,endlicherri,leopard plecs and a peacock bass coz ive realized that she was already a bit big for that 50 gallon african setup
At the first 20 minutes she seemed to like the tank,roaming around getting the place familiar,ignoring the fish that swims across her ways..
till my curious RTC bit her head
and she immidiatley freaked and defensley turned away as if it nothing happened..
Then there comes feeding time ...I put some massivore pellets and I was so happy to see that she ate the pellets showing that she is already comfortable on the tank...Then all of a sudden my RTC always follows her and always wanting the pellets the she currently eats,I know that the RTC is aware of the scattered pellets all over the tank but the RTC always bully the turtle and always take the pellets that the softshell is currently eating...
Till the turtle is somehow irritated & pissed off
... She bit one the RTC whisker and smashed it on the glass
then the RTC fight back trying to swallow the turtle's feet and head ..but the turtle is like a tank full of offenses ..biting the RTC fins,tail & its body she is very angry that she followed the RTC where ever it goes
wned:
And suddenly turned her anger towards all the fish in the tank ...Biting my endlis' spine my plecos fins and everything. She was very mad to everyone....And thats the time I've decided that she is not for that tank....
I was so amazed of the turtle's mood
She is really thinking..
