sea turtles are grazers of coral etc, they do not eat fish to my knowledge

-- I just saw a sea turtle eating from a freshly discarded fish carcass. Although sea turtles may not hunt fish, seems to me that they might feed on fish if the opportunity presents itself.

Do turtles eat everyday?

Actually turtle do not eat other turtles as their daily life food. Baby turtle may eat fish food from the store. Make sure that the fish food is really small though or the turtle may not eat the food. When the turtle gets bigger, you can feed the turtle green veggies. You can feed them different veggies too. Be sure that the veggies are soft because the turtle cannot chew hard foods, such as carrots.

Can a betta fish live with a baby regular turtle?

There are 2 reasons why you should not grow your Betta fish with a baby turtle: 1. Amphibians poison the water for fish 2. Turtles, especially baby turtles like to eat live, flashy things. Chances are, if you place your Betta with a baby turtle, it will be long gone before any pollution affects it... If you have an older, smaller turtle, it may work. Older turtles like to eat plants rather than live things, and if you have a LARGE tank, with water no deeper than 10 inches, and lots of places for your Betta to hide in case your turtle gets a little curious, it will work. Just make sure to introduce your fish to your turtle slowly, by placing it in a small, see through plastic bag inside the aquarium to get the turtle used to the sudden movements of the fish. good luck!


What are the turtles prey?

No animal is a turtle's prey. Turtle's eat plants. Wrong. Turtles (swimmers) eat everything (omnivores) it they can bite down on it they will eat it I have seen my turtle wipe out 20 gold fish in less than 2 min. Younger turtles eat more meat as they get older the lean towards veggies. I don't know about Tortoises (a land animal) but drop a turtle in your aquarium and all you pretty fish will be gone.
