Is it safe to keep a turtle and a betta fish in the same tank?

Question

Can I put a turtle in the same tank as my male betta fish?

Andrea M. Brodie, DVM · Accepted Answer

I would not put a turtle into a tank with a male betta, The betta has flowing fins which may look very tasty to the turtle. Depending on the breed of turtle, it may eat the fins off your fish or even the fish.
