can any turtle live in a 15 gallon with some goldfish ?

[Brian100487]

@McAdamExotics A 15 gallon is too small for any turtle, they will soon outgrow it. I would say start with a 20 long for young turtles. As they grow older they will need a minimum 55 gallon tank. A 75 gallon in my opinion is the absolute minimum for a full grown adult turtle. It also depends on the turtle if they can live with goldfish, some turtles will eat them.

my red ear will only eat some smaller goldfish every few months... seems liek she eats a few and will stick to regular turtle food for awile.
