Question
Hi,
Can i keep my 2"turtle and 7"Flowerhorn together in a tank.

Answer
hello Anand:  no... please do not mix the two... either  your turtle will come up missing limbs or your flowerhorn will become tattered and missing fins... one or the other is likely to die.... What kind of turtle do you have??? and did you get him from a pet store or the wild?... turtles from the wild do not live in captivity and will starve themselves to death in a matter of months... if you have any other questions please let me know... dave
