Urgent Care :: my small turt ate a big fish

[Big Labowski]

i was just in my room and my brothers female betta, which was about 3 inchs long by 2 inchs high, is gone, he didnt jump out so the turt ate it. now, would it be bad if he ate it or would it just be another meal. because it was a decently big fish but it was all fins.
thanks alot guys and gals

not something that you want to make part of your turltes diet i'm sure. none the less, i'll let u know that anything in the tank is liable to be eaten by your turtle with out prior knowtice.

It should be fine this once, but I wouldn't put any fish other than feeder guppies in the tank from now on though, you don't want your turtle eating big, fatty fish often, it's not very healthy for them...

Female betta's don't have as long fins as the male bettas so I wouldn't be worried. Please don't put betta's with the turtles, I love bettas....

ya, the only reason i did was because my brother was not taking care of it at all, so i took it and it was doing great, and it was HUGE. But i guess i dont have to feed it any more lol
