i got my turtle's some feeder fishes to feast on.
i read alot that they LOVE them, but ive had them in theyre tank for about 9 hours now and they dont even look twice at them, they still eat normally and everything though.they swim and bask normally too,and another thing the five feeder fishes seem to "bother" one particular little guy, can they kill him(my res).

btw both of my turtles are about 3 inches i think. maybe 2.

im not sure.

I doubt that the fish will hurt your turtle especially if they're just feeders. Just give your turtles some time to adjust to them and they'll be munching on them soon enough.
