i just got a 80 gallon tall tank, not sure of the dementions off the top... i would really like to put a turtle in it... i am planning on getting a turtle ramp and other stuff for it this weekend, hopefully including fish. i have read a lot about the downfalls of having turtles like they eat the fish and that they have lots of waste... i think that i may have a few options here...
1. get a bunch of bottom feeders to "clean up" after the turtle and only have a few fish in the tank. i have a source to get me some florida gar to put in there. or maby a silver arrawana or 2.
2. just get fish and be happy, maby a frog?
what kind of fish could i mix with the turtle(s) to keep my tank clean and what kind of fish could i have swimming around with the turtles? i have sources to get pretty much any fish or crab or snail or w/e for the tank. would a crawfish help? please help me
