Is it ok to house common musk with eastern muds in a 30 gal tank? They are natural together. I am not sure please reply.

Housing them diffeently is probbaly better.

Fo rone there is a chance of aggression.
But two musks tolerate deepers water and are less terrestrial.
Muds prefer shallows and wander about and dig into land more often.

Plus a 30 is too small realy for any adult turtle.

Invest in a pair of rubbermaids plastic storage boxes. You can get a 55 gallon rubbermaid (about the surface area of a 75 gallon tank) for about 12 dollars.
