Reaction of a larger turtle to a smaller turtle

I have a red eared slider turtle who isn't from a pond and is about 8 inches long.

and i am considering getting another turtle much smaller then my current turtle and am wondering how both turtles will react and get along?

No one can say for sure what will happen, but if you do not have enough room, they will definitely be unhappy and may fight. Turtles do not usually need company.

Keep it slow and steady.
