of course! i have a baby red eared slider living with a big 8 inch turtle and they get along! you have to make sure they know and like each other before you put them both in the same tank
Its really a gamble to put any fish with a red eared slider , it depends how big the sucker fish is if it is small the turtle with probably eat it , you are supposed to let them grow up together i have a sucker fish with my red eared slider but they are baby's so they have not bothered it.
About 6 months
if the red eared slider's shell is 15cm. it is 5 years old!
It dose not matter what age they have to be to eat earth worms
our red slider turtle is 1 1/2 years old and she will eat 5 small goldfish at a time.
Red Eared sliders are aggressive over food, territory mates, etc. Most likely it was due to that aggression. I would suggest separating the sliders and taking the injured slider a vet. Good Luck!
Same as any other animal, either old age or some kind of disease.
The large tortoises from the Galapagos Islands can live more than 200 years. Some American box turtle have been documented at over 100 years old. Some sea turtles probably live 75 years or more. The common pet, the red-eared slider, can live 40 years or more if they receive good care.
feed it turtle food but make sure the food is big.feed it lettuce and krill.also earthworms and fresh fish.
Creases in a red-eared slider's shell, especially in a young turtle, can indicate growth issues, often linked to improper diet or environmental conditions. If the turtle is not receiving adequate calcium or UVB light, it may lead to shell deformities. Additionally, rapid growth due to overfeeding can also cause uneven shell development. It's essential to ensure a balanced diet and proper habitat conditions to promote healthy shell growth.
Red-eared slider turtles typically reach sexual maturity and can become pregnant at around 2 to 5 years of age, depending on their size and environmental conditions. Females usually need to be at least 4 inches in shell length before they can reproduce. Proper care and a suitable habitat can influence their growth and maturation rates.
let them hear it as it drops in to the cage.
