Yeah!! eventually, as the turtle gets bigger, it will also get more agressive and goldfish look like food. Remember they are drawn to this kind of behavior by instinct, so even if you feed the turtle well, one day she/he will be hungrier.

It is possible for the turtle to eat the goldfish. It depends on the size of each.
For the person who said they cant be in the same tank - I am sure the tank is of a size that will accomodate both and that there is ramp for the turtle to climb onto. Many tanks are designed that way.

Turtles make great Pets! i think of you should get a field turtle they stay small. I extremely have a three toed field turtle and he or she is so candy and he or she has in no way bit me. for the time of the summer season and Spring (while it is not raining) you should take them outdoors each and every so often yet once you're taking it outdoors do not take your eyes off of it (Turtles can walk swifter than you think of, a minimum of mine walks quickly). i got here across my turtle on the middle of street interior her shell. We did not prefer her to get run over so we picked her up and desperate to maintain her as a puppy by way of fact we've been making plans on getting a turtle quickly in any case. For a water bowl you need to use a sandwich field (we use that for my field turtle different than it is an prolonged one approximately 6 or 8 inches. we've an prolonged one that way she will sit down in her water bowl. as quickly as we've been given my turtle we've been on a thank you to a lake so we saved her in a field wall we've been swimming and he or she crawled out and my mom instructed me take her for a swim so I did I positioned her interior the water and he or she became swimming superb! to confirm in the adventure that your turtle is a terrific swimmer you are able to try with a shallow volume of water interior the tub tub. Boy turtles have crimson eyes and female turtles have yellowish eyes. Turtles interior the wild stay as much as two hundred years! Im uncertain how some years as a puppy it in simple terms relies upon how properly you're looking after it, yet turtles do have an prolonged existence span.

it depends. If they grow up together, then they are friends. Then the turtle wont eat the fish. If not, maybe you can try darken the water or light, then the turtle can not clearly see the goldfish.

u can't keep them in the same water because the goldfish needs lots of sapce to swim while the turtle will not only eat but believe it or not can "drown" if it doesn't have atall enough space to come up
