Will turtles eat my goldfish? 
I have a very large (1/4 acre) Goldfish pond with very large goldfish and Koi. I have 2 turtles in the pond this year and want to know if they are harmless....or will they eat my Goldfish and their babies?
I have access to a turtle trap if I need to remove the turtles.

if the goldfish/koi are adult,then no, the turtles probably wont bother unless they are dead koi.they may chase smaller koi though.i had a neighbor with 2 adult red eared sliders in her pond and they never ate any live koi, just dead ones if she didn’t find the dead koi before the turtles ate them. goldfish and koi also lack nutrients and have thaimanese so it won’t be a good thing if the turtles eat the goldfish over a long period of time anyway.

well im sorry for the short but there is actually a few types of turtles that eat JELLYFISH so im sorry to say that if they eat jelly fish then they will eat reguler fish(sorry to be so unpositive)
