I have and like 3 striped Mud Turtles. They stay small, are not the beat or worst swimmers, prefer more shallow water and are easy to keep. Mine have guppies in their tanks and won't eat them. I wish they would.

Adult turtle or sub adult. They are more tolerant of our learning curve.

These are 4 years old. One would be perfect in this tank as an adult from what I have read.
