As babies snapping turtles get along with all kinds of turtles. once the snapping turtle gets big enough, it starts to realize it is stronger and bigger than the other turtles. At that point it gets very aggressive. I have a 6 month old snapping turtle that is very calm and stays away from the other turtles. My friend's snapping turtle though, is another story. His snapper is always trying to bite the other turtles limbs but is to slow is the deep water.

Snapping turtles are known to be aggressive and may attack painted turtles if they feel threatened. It is not recommended to house them together in the same enclosure. It is best to keep them separate to avoid any potential harm to the painted turtles.
