Aquariums: Can I keep Corydoras with my baby turtle? I’ve seen some ppl say that I can and I’ve also seen some ppl say you can’t keep fish with turtles in general so I’m not really sure

Well turtles are omnivores so there is always a chance you will wake up to severed fish pieces in your tank. I wouldn’t because I like to have my fish alive and such but to each their own

Yes. You can add (and he will eat) maybe about 6-12 per week depending on the size of your turtle.

I have had success with it, but only when the fish is significantly larger than the turtle. Think red eared slider and adult non fancy goldfish kind of size difference. If it fits in the mouth it will be eaten. If it’s only slightly to big it probably will be too, as turtles can piecemeal their food easily. A fast fish in a well planted tank with loads of hidey holes will likely survive, but the turtle will likely also be actively hunting it.
