Hatchling Stinkpot

Ok i think im doing this right but ill put details here for review.

I Found a hatchling stinkpot near where i fish and decided to raise it at home. I already own a 10 gallon tank so thats what im using (i will get a larger one in a year when the turtle is 2+inches). I have it setup with mostly water (about 6 inches) as the stinkpot is mostly aquatic (as per my research) I have been trying to feed it pellets but it is slow to eat them, so i bought some frozen blood worms and he has been eating them very well. I have the water temp set to around 78F and filter that is designed for tanks this size or a little bigger (terra repto filter). There are places for him to hide and a UVB bulb. The basking area is small but stays relatively warm. Since he is still young i feed him in the tank and he walks around the bottom and eats. I have added a slow dissolving calcium supplement (little white turtle) to the water.

TLDR;
Hatchling Stinkpot (musk)
10 gallon tank
Terra ReptoFilter
Blood worms
Calcium supplement
UVB lamp


I have read EVERYTHING about these guys (and also maps) so i think im doing it right. What do you think? any questions?
