Just wondering if anyone feeds there turtles feeder fish If you do, do you still feed them pellets or is that enough for how many days If someone could answer this that would be great!

Feeder fish are fine as an occasional treat (once a month or so), just use minnows rather than goldfish. When you give feeder fish they should replace the pellets for that day (or couple days if you have older turtles). You have to be careful not to feed too many protien rich foods.
