The water dulls their shell. Try a rainforest environment with extremely high humidity and a dry zone(ideally a second tank) for sun bathing. My turtle is pretty vibrant. Had my red eared slider for 17 years, he was my dad's, and he had him for 18 years, going on 35 and super healthy. Also...if you hold your turtle every single day for a few hours a day (and play with it) you'd be surprised how cool of a pet they are. My turtle loves my cats.
As a turtle owner myself I've tried keeping multiple different types of fish consisting of various sizes and I can say that even if the goldfish is bigger then the turtle they will still try to munch on them my last gold fish looked like something straight out of a zombie movie by the time my red eared slider got though with it
Hello Luke, turtle expert here, i would start feeding him hikari koi wheat germ, this helps them to shed their scutes. these are red bellied cooters which grow pretty big! their patterning does unfortunately fade as they get older however after a shed they will appear fired up
In my experience, the fish being large isn't going to stop turtles from biting them. They may be unable to swallow them whole or anything like that, but they'll certainly take a chunk out of them.
Just a heads up because it can look concerning if you don't know what's going on. There scoots are going to be falling off soon, so if you see their shell start falling off, dont worry its natural.
I own an exotic pet store and we had someone surrender a turtle who had been living with these small fish some mollys and an angel fish and there was never any aggression it was really cool to see how well they lived together, eventually we found them a good home
I remember that we used to have these turtles Timmy and Totty and though we got them at the same age, Timmy grew a lot faster than Totty like Squirtle to Stubbin. Though Totty died in 2017 to an infection, timmy kept on growing and passed in 2021 to unknown causes. This story makes me remember of them ❤ RIP Timmy and Totty 🕊️
Make sure to occasionally feed em shrimp and cuttlefish bones for the calcium maybe even blood worms! They LOOOVE blood worms by what ive heard And you should try making sure their gender as I think snubbing may actually be a girl try googling the species of turtle and how to tell their sex appart
Mine too, just passed. Only had her since April but she grew and I thought she was OK. But her and the other one don't eat enough in my opinion. Tried all sorts of food they are supposed to munch but nada.
Aww!! My turtle did the same thing! I upgraded him from a plastic tub to a real tank and he got HUGE! So fast! And yeah, that pattern goes away but they grow a new one! Mine was about 6-8 months before those baby scutes finally came off
When turtles get proper care and nutrition, they really do get very big! Once they reach around two, Squirtle should ease down on the scute shedding a tad. I keep a different type of turtle, though, so I don't know if I'm necessarily correct.
I just got a temporary turtle:> from the beach, curled up on the surface, mom wanted to take it so it didn’t get stepped on.. I could agree. Then she wanted to keep it, and I’m like ‘let’s go’
I have a red ear slider as well. She is about 14 years old and a little bigger than a softball. The shell will come back. They actually grow to the size of their tank so every time your turtle gets bigger she will get bigger for your fish, I could assure you that she will get big enough to where she will try to eat the fish, my turtle is eaten probably $300 worth of fish already

Decrease me there
The shell only looks like that when they’re young. When they get older it just turns dark green/ brown with a slightly recognizable pattern
Aww those patterns would look so good on a bigger turtle
I had an alligator turtle it actually had the patterns it’s shell just turned more brown
they must have brighter colors as children so they have a better chance of hiding from predators
@@wess8443what your saying doesn’t make sense how would it be easier to hide with bright colors

My turtles are vegetarians because my plants don't move and my fish do
@@norris_watkinsthey need meat in their diet btw. So you should do something about that
I agree with you I've owned my 6 turtles for almost 20 years and no matter the size of the fish they will still tear them apart
hey! can i ask if there's a breed/type f
of turtle to kee that is not growing so big?
@@walalang205 i think musk turtles are the smallest. But they are still big. All turtles need alot of space land and water.
That orange fish was fighting for dear life.
I felt so bad for the poor baby… it must have been terrified.
He likes to pet them?
Yeah it is a little bit funny to imagine the opposite, like he was just half drowning that thing so it was easier to see
Goldfish are really bad for turtles. I wouldn't risk it.
Goldfish can breathe as long as their gills are wet, but handling them induces stress @@blasttyrant3228
Your Squirtle evolved into Wartortle, in 100 years he will grow into a Blastoise😂
No in 10 years
In two hundred years he'll be eating pupils at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
😂😂
Only 20 more levels.
then into a mega blastoise
“He’s acting like a turtle”
That line cracked me up. Like YEAH I SURE HOPE HE IS🤣🤣

I don’t feed my turtles that but they still shed their scutes. I feed my turtles green vegetables
Arent they yellow bellied sliders? Correct me if I’m wrong
Isnt it a yellow bellied slider? I have the same type of turtle
what does 'fired up' means? meaning the shell would b colored?
Hmmm
Turtles are so fricken cute 😭🐢
So true
Turtles are adorable ❤
I have two rescue turtles one named Turt Mcsquirt and Leonard. Both I got at the size of quarters. I love turtles.
I love turtles, especially I like to keep them in my room 😍
waiting for an update on the shaping turtle eggs + squirtle is adorable

The names ..... Adorable . Yes a beautiful pattern and cool colors .
Your taking care of them well! Nicely done Luke!
Him: He's acting like a turtle 💀
Squirtle be like: Dude! Just put me down...😶

Adorable turtles❤
The shell is way more pretty as they are tiny, the shell he has now is his shell for the rest of his life buddy lol
The pattern on his carapace was beautiful at the start
I remember that we used to have these turtles Timmy and Totty and though we got them at the same age, Timmy grew a lot faster than Totty like Squirtle to Stubbin.

As a fellow turtle owner it amazes me how that can happen in a mater if months. It took my turtle well over a year to get that big.
The goldfish struggling 💀😭
Hahaha so true
They are just amazing
"No matter how small he is, he will be adorable"
-Someone smart
Also, can u name the goldfish in the turtle tank?
woah our turtles have the same name AND look alike 😮
Stubbin seems to be stubborn on not growing as fast 🤣
Right lol! 😅 Seems to be staying stubby little guy 😂
Omg I have the same type of turtle! My turtles name is shermy! Your turtle is so cute
Luke, if he grows bigger than your hand, YOU GOTTA RENAME HIM WARTORTLE!!😂👌🏽👌🏽
If he grows cannons on its back then rename it to blastoise🤣
Awww..... This transformation is choo adorable ❤😮
You will only see the first pattern when they are babies. I think it is to help them camouflage in the wild! 💕
They’re so cute I’m gonna cry 😭❤
I’ve never been this early! Will make sure to order one if I can. The turtles are so cute!
Your turtles are so cute 😊❤
Sending more "Make eggies" vibes to Jigglypuff 🙌🏻
Beautiful color ❤❤
Make a short on eggs updated
you're a good father and their rapid growth is due to your loving care
Make sure to occasionally feed em shrimp and cuttlefish bones for the calcium maybe even blood worms! They LOOOVE blood worms by what ive heard
And you should try making sure their gender as I think snubbing may actually be a girl try googling the species of turtle and how to tell their sex appart
Absolutely beautiful!! 💜🐢🥰
Squirtle 🐿️ 😂
I miss those turtles I had them in Serbia but not allowed in Australia ...
😢😢
I had my pet painted turtle Francesco for 30 years they are truly amazing
Your turtles are adorable!!
I remember when my Red-Eared Slider was this small! I miss those days :(
Omg they are so cute❤❤😍😍
So Sweet and precious 💖 😊
They're so adorable
Luke: *filming the gold fish
Turtle: im just passing by!
Awww these names are too adorable
I wish slider shells kept their patterns. They're so pretty as hatchlings!
Turtle is my favourite ❤❤❤❤
That poor goldfish 💀 can you imagine talking about how well your cat is getting along with your dog while waterboarding it
Very cool turtle 😮😊
You are doing far better than me, mine died last week as a hatchling.
Mine too, just passed. Only had her since April but she grew and I thought she was OK. But her and the other one don't eat enough in my opinion. Tried all sorts of food they are supposed to munch but nada.
I wish they would stay that small forever!
I have a turtle to!
I have an Alligator Snapper named Squirtle!!
This lil guys so rad 😮
Adorable 🥰
I got a turtle like that I named him scribbles and he is so cute
That little turtle is gonna outlive you by about 70 years
Cute turtle baby
Omg- that name made me remember the best episode in Pokémon history- THE SQUIRTLE SQUAD (excluding the jigglypuff episodes ofc)
Squirtle is such a good name! 😂 🐢
aw he's so cute
Aww!! My turtle did the same thing! I upgraded him from a plastic tub to a real tank and he got HUGE! So fast! And yeah, that pattern goes away but they grow a new one! Mine was about 6-8 months before those baby scutes finally came off
What a cute babyyy, he turning into a squaaare
Baby boy turtle was so cuteeeee

“The design”😂
Bro’s really treating this like a video game
I have two turtles as well they grew so much it’s adorable when there babies I wish they stayed like that 😢

I love these turtles I have one of my own which is tiny he’s grown a bit I’ve only had mine for like 3 months
The design on the new scutes are just as cool as the old ones in my opinion
I have a red ear slider as well. She is about 14 years old and a little bigger than a softball. The shell will come back.
