Since I don't know the actual question, here's some info on red eared sliders.
-Red Eared Sliders are almost totally aquatic, but leave the water to bask on hot sunny days, so they need an area to swim in.
-Red Ear Sliders are omnivores who can be fed a variety of foods including plant and animal material. The range of food can include pellets, aquatic plants, vegetables, animal protein, as well as the occasional supplement.
-The turtle must be kept in an aquarium or other enclosure in keeping with its size. Tank size is the first critical issue you will have to deal with. The small portable containers often sold along with a baby red-eared slider are completely inadequate even for the smallest specimen. Water levels should be as high as possible, but not enough for escape. Red-eared Sliders will need housing that mimics their natural environment — warm, with water for swimming, and a dry warm area in which to bask.
-Another requirement is that the basking area be equipped with a heat lamp.

Hope it helped.

in the event that they're youthful you're able to not have an issue protecting them at the same time earlier each and every thing compatibility-smart, yet you're able to verify you have sufficient room for them later while they get massive (as much as twelve inches of shell each and each!). while you're finding out to purchase the two as adults from a puppy shop, that's beneficial to visual demonstrate unit and only confirm you do not p.c.. 2 extremely aggressive turtles. in case you have had one for an prolonged time and are introducing yet another into the tank, you choose to be very careful. the single that has been there longer will maximum in all probability tutor indicators of territorial aggression, wherein case one turtle will finally end up attacked and/or ineffective (i don't comprehend how frequently the latter occurs, yet turtles do combat). as long as you keep the tank sufficiently massive (i could say a minimum of fifty 5 gallons for the two) and verify they don't combat, they could desire to be ok. you could feed them in separate packing containers while you're fearful approximately them being grasping over nutrition, yet once you initiate up doing this, you're able to shop doing it, as they are going to conflict it out as quickly as you initiate up feeding them at the same time.
