Answer 1

why do you buy a pet you know nothing about? doesn't common sens tell you to learn  as much as you can about a animal before you buy it!

Answer 2

There is something about a soft-shell that tells other turtles, "Bite me". They do. Give it its own tank with lots of bait fish to chase and eat.

Answer 3

They are not easy.  Please read this care sheet and then do your best to provide for its special needs.
