It would be an incredibly impractical and expensive setup, but can Matamatas be kept with other peaceful basking turtles?
I'd imagine it might work because....
1: Matamatas are beakless, and I really couldn't see a full-sized red eared slider being able to be engulfed. In comparison, wouldn't Matamatas are waaayy too big for even an 8-inch long slider to bully?
2: Matamatas are bottom-dwellers and basking turtles primarily dwell on the upper layers, so I couldn't see them coming into conflict very often
3: Matamatas don't bask, so the two wouldn't be competing for space]]
this probably wouldn't work, just wondering
