It would depend greatly on the species and gender (females generally take longer) and the adults continue to grow for some time.

The Red-footed Tortoise for example would take probably take between 15 to 20 years to mature completely, while a Painted Turtle would take about 10 to 15 years.

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!
