Default How to take care of baby turtle. Im pretty sure its a Yellow-Belly slider?

its probably about an inch long & wide...i caught it in a little creek outside today. i put some rocks & water & the turtle in a round fish tank, like the size of a football helmet. i gave it some lettuce, carrot, & cantelope? how warm does it need to be & what kind of foods do i give it? any other information would also be helpful..oh & how much whater does it need?i have like rocks on one side so it can sit on those & water on the other side if it wants to go underwater, but it seems like it needs more room to swim, should i just fill it past the rocks or does it need to be dry sometimes too?& does it eat underwater?
