Hi and welcome. You can do a search about pyramiding. You'll find many discussions on it with pictures and an explaination.

It's difficult to find pics of pyramiding in aquatic turtles. Here's a link for tortoises. It's pretty much the same as far as what it looks like and what the causes are

Good lord. That's not pyramiding. That's a severe case of shell curling. Is he still alive?
