turtles and fish together ????

[Glasman]

I have a 125 with 5 different species of water turtle, a school of tiger barbs, a long ear sunfish, and a few others and they have lived together since the turtles were an inch long with no issues.
-Red Ear Slider
-Painted
-Softshell
-Musk
-common snapper

They are all about 4 inches now and will soon move to their new 220

Large sidenecks will turn all of your prized arows into feeder guppies. Stick to the 2 suggest species. for more info read this. http://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/f...rs-Guide-to-Keeping-Turtles-and-Fish-Together

smaller Musks in a large tank seem to do well with larger fish IME

from what i know, fly rivers are only agressive to their own kind.. ive had Arrowanas catfish, Pbass, Rays, bichirs, etc.. my FRT would only go after a dying fish.. and feeders..

Alot of it depends how much space the said tank occupants have to share. imo.

the amount of space is irrelevant. these animals eat fish in the wild. And that is done in much larger volumes of water

Yes, but they don't all eat live fish. My turtles will devour any dead fish in the tank, but they act as if they arent even there the rest of the time.
Even my common snapper, which was a surprise even to me.
