Hi! Anyone know a pond turtle that would be good for my pond...besides the Red eared slider, they eat my Goldfish and escape easily.
I'm in CA.

Pond turtle?

Painted turtle perhaps, kept them for years and left my fish alone. However, All turtles are escape artists, if not properly penned. They won’t just stay in a garden pond.
Most semiaquatic turtles are omnivores, so if the pond isn’t large enough the may hunt your fish. I keep a pair of DBT’s now in a 8000gallon pond they ignore the fish, as well.
