    my turtle lives harmoniously with my comet goldfish. it helps that the goldfish are nearly as big if not bigger than the turtle. they dont seem to bother each other much, and i get to leave them outside year round in my stock tub setup

    As a fish keeper (well more of a hobbyists researcher) I agree with the information presented, all helpful and accurate
    Great tip for the goldfish vs livebearers in particular!
    I personally don’t approve of the idea of live fish as feeders, but livebearers over goldfish any day

    Love your sense of humor in this video. I keep golden white cloud minnows with my musk turtle (Wendell). He can't catch 'em for now. Either way, he's getting his exercise in daily.

    As someone with an eastern long neck turtle (a carnivorous species) the only suitable fish is livebearers, They’re small, an infinite food glitch and completely safe for the turtle.

    I keep fish with my large turtles and small turtle. I have convict cichlids with my large turtles, they are basically the guppy equivalent of a cichlid. They reproduce like rabbits and the turtles eat the babies but I only recommend them with turtles larger than they are. They aren’t super aggressive with the turtles, mostly just the other fish. If you want something a little smaller and less aggressive and more attractive, I’d recommend kribensis cichlids. They reproduce a lot too. I’ve got gambusia with my smaller turtle and he eats the babies. I like them more than other live bearers because their mouths are usually too small to eat their own babies, plus they are even cheaper and they’re a silvery color so they don’t take away from any decor or natural aesthetic of your tank but I may be adding some colorful live bearers down the line. Gambusia are just really hardy which can be hard to find with live bearers since a lot of them are inbred, plus they reproduce more and it’s easier to tell when they’re gravid. It’s really good for enrichment and natural diets and exercise. I like that my turtles don’t just have to sit in a boring tank all day and can chase something or look at them.

    When I had a turtle as a kid in the 80s-90s (red eared slider named Raph, yes because of TMNT) we did feeders, (which I don't claim to think this was good or not, I'm just sharing a funny story)
    Raph had maybe 3 braincells he could rub together on most days, and some of the feeders could EASILY outmaneuver him. If they lived for more than a week, they got promoted to my grandma's fish tank (huge, basically a small pond, was outside our garage)
    I remember one of those feeders living for several years and being nearly a foot long. They lived happy lives out there. and you'd never expect them to get so big or live that long

    I once put 10 neon-tetra in my turtle tank. My boy, 2 months old ate al of them within 2 weeks. Now i am working on a 130 gallon tank. It is huge so the fish have a chance to escape. It's not going to help but i bought 2 more turtles. A big tank with enough hiding places for the beautifull little fish. I don't won't them to be exterminated. I get to attached to them ;) I don't have a farm, just a dude enjoying the creatures i am dealt with :D

    I have guppies in all of my turtle tubs and tanks. That’s 8 in total. 7 of them have hundreds at this point. The one without is the alligator stapper hatchlings tub so yeah…
    Outdoor turtles have rice fish or native fish like rudd with native turtles.

    When my turtles were less than a year old they definitely went after the fish until they got all of them. Now they are about 2.5 years old and literally do nothing when the fish swim right in their faces 😂 They will eat the tiny fish babies when its convenient for them though

    My turtle is very kind and sweat above water. In the water however, he’s an absolute psychopath. Fish? Tracked down to no end and eaten. Plants? What are those? Sounds like more food. Artificial plants? Looks like a snack. Artificial cave? Bite marks throughout. And he’s not starved. Eastern painted btw.

    Hey brotha I added some guppies in my tubs do you run any aeration stones for the fish or do you just have filters and heaters running in there, I made a filter that pours water back in so it agitates the surface guessing that’ll be enough o2 for the guppies but figured I’d ask what you do for that… I’ve got a heater and filter no live plants no air pumps… lmk! 👍🏼🤝🏻

    Maybe this is mean, but I can't stand that my turtle didn't... dispose of the goldfish that I put in his tank when I first got him. Those things got HUGE and are STILL ALIVE. I wish I'd known they weren't good for turtles before I got them. 😭
