We have three red ear sliders, 2 male and 1 female. The males seem really aggressive towards each other and really friendly towards the female. The males will get face to face and then one will just back away if the other moves closer. If anyone knows why they are doin this please let me know...

Maybe they are "fighting" for the female?? Turtles are very territorial, just an FYI...
