Can I mix an aquatic turtle with tropical fish?

[Sylvia27]

Hi:

This may be a silly question. I was just wondering.

Since I have a snail and a dwarf frog. I just love to have diversity.

Also, If there is some kind of a small fully aquatic turtle, what would be the name of that species?

Thanks.

if it's for your 20 gallon mentions in your signature i don't think there's a turtle that is that small.

Generally turtles will eat anything smaller than them...so your snail and frog and any fish in the tank would probably be doomed. Also, the smallest turt species that I'm aware of are mud and musk turtles...which can handle 20 gallon tanks alone....but really should be kept in at least a 30 or 40.
