jc254 Posted May 7, 2011 Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 I have added 3 baby snake necks to my original two. The baby's are around 2-3cm shell size and the older ones are around 6cm, is this a concern? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonnaM Posted May 7, 2011 Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 Currently on the Aussie turtle forum theres a lovely photo of an ELN with a ripped neck from a slightly bigger ELN tank mate...and they are both juveniles. How big is your tank? Plenty of hidey places/ driftwood? If they do cause an injury, the others keep going back to it as they think its 'food'. I've had ELNs of varying sizes together in large tanks/ponds with no problems, but theres always the potential for territorial issues and fighting with turtles. :facepalm: If it was me I'd keep an eye on them and seperate immediately if I noticed any aggression.... Others may have different ideas :spop: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
