Yeah he really actually cut off his penis. And also Sk8r009 it's just like teepee said it has a very low survival rate. That's what the vet said. It was stuck outside of his tail and the vet said if I let it be with out bringing him to the vet then he would have died from an infection. So he had to have it done. And I didn't know they hit maturity that fast. He was only a year or two at the time. It was a big tank I had them in but they never fought. Just the bigger one that had the operation, he was kind of a bully once he started to hit maturity I guess. But he never actually fought with the other turtles just mounted them and also usually he was the main one to eat the food. Plus if one of them was in a place under a rock or some thing he would dig them out and lay there. Thanks for the responses.
