Don't keep them together. You'll regret it at some point.

Dude, AST's can remove fingers and LIMBS! You really think its worth asking to even try that? I'm not trying to offend you, but I'm being blunt. I honestly don't think you should keep turtles if you want to try that. Use common sense, I know you have some. 
If you want something to house with your RES, try a map, painted, spotted, or musk. You'll enjoy that much more than an RES with 3 legs.
