  1. Yeah,treat them the same.


  2. I have experience with both types of turtles and there are few differences.  A mississippi map turtle is more prone to sickness if the water isnt constantly clean.  They eat about the same things. mississippi maps will eat fish but they usually prefer crickets or mealworms.  They are happier with high water. Hope this helped.

  3. I have a Mississippi map turtle and I keep it the same way as I would keep a red eared slider.
