Steve sorry I missed your reply to the post below in reference to me keeping my snappers housed together, I just kind of missed it! Anyways, no. Theres a fat risk of a larger snapper (Macro or Chelydra) eating a smaller one. I've seen it a number of times, not to mention the documentation i've read, not worth the risk. Having them together would be fine I would say in the event that they were to be bred to one another and on that note, I would'nt keep them in anything less than an enormous outdoor pond for hibernating and elbow room ~ wish I had that kind of space, but I don't lol Thanx, Leo
