No because Oscar fish grow very large and the amount of water that the fish would need is way more than you could have for a turtle in captivity. Actually, I don't know of any fish that could live with a turtle in captivity, due to the amount of water they each need.

Many turtles are predatory, such as the snapping turtle, and alligator snapping turtle.

Yes. The mother salmon lays eggs and the fish hatch. With Pacific salmon, the fish die just before the eggs hatch. With Atlantic salmon, the fish swim back to the ocean just before the eggs hatch.

Yes, Yes, Yes!!!! No matter what kind of Turtle u have the best thing u could buy is one of those plastic baby pools and let it play in that! If you have an Aquatic turtle put a few inches of cool water (depending on the size of the turtle) and a big rock for it to bask in the sun, or if you have a land turtle put a few inches of sand in it and a dish for fresh water and let them play for no more than a couple hours. But during play time u have to keep a very close eye on them and keep away Predators, or make sure they don't climb out!! But in the end your turlte will love u for letting it play in the air and sun!
