1. They do not need, or necessarily even WANT 'playmates'.
2. You should only consider another turtle if you ahve room and resources for both. Remember- to keep a turtle healthy, you need a BIG tank of heated and filtered water, aiming for about 10 gallons of actual water (not tank space) per inch of turtle.
The right-sized tank will help prevent bullying, territoriality, and other stresses.

it depends on the type.
only I would think that your turtle might get annoyed or ignore the other turtle. I honestly dont know.

Sure you can. Just be sure the habitat is large enough for two and that the "new friend" is healthy. Good Luck and enjoy!
