Feeding and Nutrition :: Is fish food safe for my turtle?

[julie373]

So, as some of you already know I bought a couple of rose red minnows and put them in with my turtle hoping he would eat them, but he doesnt even seem to mind them unless they swim too close to him. So anyway, I feed my turtle ZooMed pellets. I bought TetraFin flakes for the minnows, is it safe for my turtle? I figured I would just feed them all in the tank, but I dont want to harm my turtle.

No, they won't hurt him. They're not a good food to be feeding him, but it won't hurt if he snags a few flakes.
