tortoise biting and getting on ones back

[hingeback]

i dont think they are water turtles ....i have never tried putting them in fully underwater though ...

Can you also post their enclosure?

Can you post pictures of their sides?

First, you should separate them into their own enclosures. Tortoises should not be kept in pairs.

Next, tell us what species and show us pics of the tails and anal scutes, so that we can verify what we're dealing with here.

i showed it here , go check it out ! Thanks

Looks like turtles too me. How do you know they are male and female?

my parents flip their backs and said that the one with more dots is the male ...

They are probably fighting and also you should not be mixing species.

the one in the first pic is definitely a water turtle. the other im not so sure about can you get a better pic of it? like above and from the side and the face?

im worried the second picture is a tortoise which shouldn't be submerged in water for long periods of time they are dry land but i can't tell for sure

they are different species ?

they are not fully submerged. the water level is at the tip of their side shell.

Yes

 

[happy&joy]

Yes

Those two are where they are staying all the time? Is it indoors or outdoors?

 

[hingeback]

Both are different species. The first one is a red eared slider, second one is a Chinese striped-necked turtle.

Yup, their enclosures are way too small. They need a pond(a shallow one would do) and they need land too. They can't stay in the water forever.
