Hi. I have 2 baby slider turtles, both boys, both about the size of a quarter. One is a Red Ear Slider, I call him Sheldon. The other is a Cumberland Slider, I call him Leonard. They’re in a 20 gallon tank for now, but I know as they grow I’m going to have to upgrade a good bit. They have filters and lights and basking areas already. I feed them both seperately outside of the tank because Leonard is more aggressive about food and I want to make sure Sheldon gets enough, and to also cut down on messes in the tank. But, I was wondering, as they grow up, will they fight? Should I separate them completely? Will they be ok together for their whole lives? Since they’re both male will they fight if there is no female, just them? Also, what type of plant, if any, would they like in the tank that will be safe for them both if they ate it?
