Hi everyone, i noticed that i didnt see my red belly in a while. It turns out that My Rio Grande, which is about 3 inches bigger then him, ate him. I saw My Rio tearing him up at the bottom of the tank
. Why is this?

Unfortunately that happens which is why its better to keep bigger turtles seperated from the smaller ones.

Yes i should have thought of that. But the worst thing is i ordered a baby Rio Grande and they shipped me one that was a minimum of 3 or 3.5 inches.

eek! No one is perfect though
I just always kept mine apart if they were not the same size or close to it.
