Do water turtles crawl away, and do you have to keep them in cages or
are water turtles more like fish, in that they pretty much stay in the

skimming that some turtles need to eat vegetables, and in the wild
they often consume duckweed. (Maybe the alligator ate the turtles
that were eating the duckweed in back.)

Well, the Goldfish really eat the Duckweed! Not sure of the turtle!
I supose Raccoons and birds could pick them off too!
