this is what I feed my turtles:

Fruits:
Strawberries
Apples
Grapes
Cantaloupe
Pears (but mine didn't like them)
not bananas cz they're high in fats and low on benefits for turtles
NOTE: stay away from fruits with hight levels of citric acid


Veggies:
Lettuce (but NOT iceberg)
Carrots (stick to that a lot)
Corn (try to peel the skin and give them the "seed" thing inside)
Zucchini


Plants:
Ancharis
water hyacinth
duckweed
water lilies
