It depends on several factors. If they are not bigger then 1" in diameter a part, then they should be fine. Your res may be dominant of the tank and not let the ybs eat. They may also fight. If the res is more than 1" larger than the ybs, there's a chance of the res killing the ybs. The dominance can happen with any turtles at any size and is a good possibility of happening. If the size difference is this much then you should have separate tanks until they are near the same size. Turtles don't like buddies, they tolerate them. They aren't social creatures by nature.

Turtle can stay out of water for extraordinarily lengthy time period.. contained in the adventure that your turtle basking decrease than a warm temperature lamp, they could very last for 8 hours. A submersible heater can warmth the water up. keep the ater temp round 18-20degree(celcius). Turtle needs water to sit down back up their shell after basking from the nice and cozy temperature lamp.

Key issue will be territory size. The bigger the habitat, and the more space each has of its own, the fewer problems you'll have.
