Size of tank for 4 yellow bellied slider turtles

Hi


I have recently bought 4 baby yellow bellied slider turtles. I'm thinking long term and for the turtles well being so when the turtles are fully grown what size tank would i need for them?

Thanks very much in advance for your help and hope to hear from you soon

Hi, to give you an idea, I have small full grown male map turtle in a 65 gallon tank..... and he is fine, would probably gone the next size up, but I did not have a 48 in length stand, had one for 36 inch....he seems to be happy...and I keep the water 12 inches deep and tank is 24 inches deep.... Hope that gives you more of an idea...

I am not an expert or anything; but I would guess for four of them at least 75-100 gal. I had a 250 for two turtles; when I reduced them to a smaller tank, they were not very happy with me.

I would guess as big as you have room for!
