CATDOLL : CATDOLL: Can turtles be kept together with fish?

Turtles and fish can actually be raised together, and there are many benefits to raising them together. Although the combination of the two complements each other, we should still understand the precautions for raising turtles and fish together. Turtles and fish can actually be raised together, and there are many benefits to raising them together. It can be said that they achieve a mutually beneficial effect. Raising turtles and fish together can increase oxygen and water layer convection. The activities of turtles in the water increase the convection of the water layer, allowing oxygen to be exchanged between water layers. The activities of turtles at the bottom of the water can decompose organic matter at the bottom of the sedimentation pool faster, reduce the oxygen consumption of organic matter, and reduce the possibility of flooding the pool. Although the combination of the two complements each other, we should still understand the precautions for raising turtles and fish together.

Mixed culture of turtles and fish is beneficial to the reproduction and utilization of bait organisms. Leftover bait and excrement can enrich the water quality and promote the proliferation of plankton and benthic organisms. Mixed culture of turtles and fish can purify the water quality. Fish can use the leftover bait of turtles, and the excrement of fish is absorbed by plankton, which deteriorates the water quality. Mixed culture of turtles and fish can reduce fish diseases. Turtles are more or less "threatening" to fish, increasing their survival awareness and producing a "catfish effect".

Turtles and fish raised together should not be too fierce, and there should not be obvious incompatibilities such as mutual aggression between turtles and fish. For example, alligator turtles should not be raised together with fish. They should be fed in time. If they are not fed in time, turtles that do not actively attack fish may catch fish to eat because of hunger. There should be a wide place, that is, the water area occupied by turtles and fish raised together should be relatively wide, so that turtles and fish have their own space for activities.
