1) "Red Ear Sliders are omnivores who can be fed a variety of foods including plant and animal material. The range of food can include pellets, aquatic plants, vegetables, insects, fish and treats (shrimp, fruit, etc.) as well as the occasional supplement. The primary diet of a RES should consist of a commercially made pellet, of which there are many types and varieties. Younger turtles tend to be more carnivorous (eat more animal protein) than adults do. As they grow larger and older, they become increasingly herbivorous."

2) I already answered three of your questions about red-eared sliders. If you are so interested in these animals and have so many questions,why do you not consult a good book about them or ask the Pet Shop Boys?
