Question
What do you feed your turtle. Right now i am just feeding him pellet food and every so often some brine shrimp.
is there anything else i should try to add to his diet?
He is a very small turtle for the age that he is.
Thank you for answering all my questions.

Answer
It would help to know the species, but for most small turtles you can try bloodworms or other live 'fish food' from a good pet shop.

Try http://www.austinsturtlepage.com for more about your species. I'd bet it is a Red-ear slider, but there are many other possibilities.
