Habitat - Indoor :: New to Turtles.

Hey guys i got a few questions on making a new Tank for my 4 turtles. I currently have an 30 gallon. 3 of the turtles are babies right now and my other one is about 3 years old. Will it be fine to mix them all together? I am looking at a few tanks. The one I'm looking at is a 90 gallon tank 48x18. Not sure on height. Will the tank size be on for the next few years or so. New to all this turtles stuff. If you guys can give me some main things that i may need,please let me know. What would be a good filter, light , and a hang out spot for them. Thank you guys

The size is probably too great. I would definitely keep them apart during feeding. Keep in mind, any males will likely have to be separated individually. What's the gender of the older turtle?

The oldest one is a female. Do you think the 30 gallon would be ok for now?

It's not optimal but do the best you can. Usually an 1" of shell length requires about 10 gallons of tank space. So a 4" turtle should have at lease a 40 gallon tank.
