Turtle 1 and 2 should be: ( Pangshura tentoria circumdata) Circled Indian Tent Turtles and 3 and 4 should be: (Pangshura tecta) Indian Roofed Turtles
As for sexing, you cant tell untill they reach adults.

do they get along with red eared sliders at all?
the circled indian tent turtles seem VERY aggressive and the indian roofed turtles are always hyper lol!
comparatively my red eared sliders are calm and quiet.
i haven't made them meet yet and i dunno if i should!

LMAO I love their names. Does this mean a roofed turtle has a higher mortgage to pay than a tent turtle?
