common musks generally reach 3-4 inches at full maturity as do 3 striped muds and Mississippi muds. And some male basking species stay under 4 inches like Texas and cagles maps.

Answer: That is not entirely true. Wild turtles can be small and domesticated turtles can be large. Large turtles are very old and take a long time to get to those large sizes.

Why turtles are fighting with smoll turtle?

Turtles are not inherently social creatures. Keeping turtles of vastly different sizes together is often a bad idea because the larger turtle(s) are capable of causing serious injuries to the smaller turtles if they feel their territory is not being respected. (and often the whole tank is "their" territory!) I have successfully kept small turtles with small turtles and large turtles with other large turtles, but mixing sizes often results in disaster. I would recommend moving the smaller turtle into a new habitat either for the rest of its life or at least until it's large enough to try putting it with the other turtle(s) again.

Is it true that if you have lots of turtles in the same tank the big turtles will kill the smaller ones?

Yes, much larger turtles can hurt and even kill smaller turtles.Turtles need lots of space so if you have an over crowded tank you need to separate them. Not necessarily. If your turtles have an appropriate amount of space they will happily exist with new additions to their group. However, if you are keeping turtles in an aquarium and in very unnatural surroundings, the stress alone of their situation often results in cannibalism. If the turtles are of the same species, it is extremely rare for larger turtles to kill smaller ones. This is an inherent instinct that helps to ensure the survival of the species. I have, in my 30+ years of breeding turtles and tortoises, found that larger turtles may attack smaller turtles of a different species, either in combat or for food. For this reason, you should never mix turtle species in a habitat without paying careful attention to the difference in their sizes.
