Do red eared turtles eat fish?

Red eared slider turtles are as active as any aquatic turtle. They swim, bask and eat. They don't "do much" but they are still really neat pets.

If you want to watch them "doing something" that can be entertaining, put a couple of orange goldfish in the tank. The turtles will chase the fish, catch and eat them. This is usually the most active they will be. (I say orange because turtles do not see well and will have a harder time with the brown or dull color fish).

My red eared sliders "beg" for treats. They will swim to the part of their aquarium nearest to where I am and splash water and swim around trying to get my attention.

I have one turtle who is more fond of attention than the others. I can pet her on the head and she doesn't try to avoid being "petted".

I think the red eared slider turtles are fun to watch and make interesting pets.
