hello, i’m a new turtle mom. I got two turtles name Pablo and Mula. I have a few questions, I just put them in their tank two days ago . at night, do they need a light ? or is it okay for them to be in a room that is dark? also (pablo) is scared when I walk up to the tank, he swims and hide, any tricks?

Also here is a picture of one of my turtle shell (Pablo), is it rotting?

my other turtle ( Mula) , shell isn’t like that it’s perfect but (mula)been basking since she got in the tank and (mula )is just now going in the water.

No light at night, but they DO need a light over the "dock" so they can sit under it and warm up.
