Well, male and female aquatic turtles are easy to tell apart in a few years. If they are not at least 4inches long, you cannot tell what is a male or a female. A female is usually much more bigger than males when they are grown-up. Also, a female has a more broader head (neck) than a male. A male has a longer, thicker tail than a female, and it has much more longer, nastier nails than a female. Those are about it how you can tell them apart. I hope this helped you.
