Razorback and Common Musk Turtles

This is a video of my 1 year old common musks and Razorback musks that I am raising up. They are eating a few zoomed aquatic turtle pellets. I also like to feed them crickets, minnows, lobster roaches, mice, and other insects to varry their diet.

Mine are fed once a day, as much as they can eat in about 10minutes or so. Try feeding various things like crickets, earthworms, minnows, and different types of pelleted food ( I personally like Zoomed aquatic turtle food) to see which they prefer. The razorbacks in the vid are now about 2.5" and 3.5" long.

How big do common and razorbacks get and what is a recommended tank size???

[mrphill1999]

How do you clean such a big tank?

And if i were to chose one of these species as a pet, i have been considering it which one and why?

Do they all get on okay? do you know wot sex they are? I want to introduce a baby razorback to my common musk whilst it is small

[2footfish]

@Ackie89 haaha thats great i have hope then i like them small but i really want them to be bigger so i can get a bigger tank and have it filled with more water like yours its annoying sometimes when i look at my inch ones and have to have the water level so low plus they hide so i can see them at all sometimes x

I love your turtles. Just wondering - do you have any preference towards the razorback or the common musk...and why? I am trying to decide which of the two to get. Thanks.
