i couldn't find the answer to this question, so i will just ask.

how fast to turtles grow?

honestly I'm pretty sure it just depends on diet. I know they can grow really fast but it's not really something you want to do, because this is caused by over excessive feeding.

ok, thanks!

usually turtles tend to grow 3 cm a year about a inch. like what sway said it also depends on diet

Pet turtles (who grow faster than those in the wild because of the rich diet) will often grow to around 4" (give or take an inch) long in their first year. After that they grow more and more slowly every year.

Owhh i see...

ok, that gives me plenty of time to save up for an upgrade, which i hope to make few. go from a small tank to a hopefully large one, not the minimum. i plan on spending as less as possible, (fewer upgrades.)

I say stick to plastic rubbermaids until you know the sex of the turtle. Male turt - get a 90 gallon, female turt - get a 120 gallon.
