Hello. Welcome to the board.
About this kidney shaped tank... do you know how many gallons it holds? Turtles should have 10 gallons of water per inch of shell. Also, do they have a UVB light? Those are absolutely nessecary. I suggest you read the main site and all the stickies. If you have any questions, just ask us!

The type of bowl that you bought is commonly known as a 'death bowl'. Quite literally, if you leave your turtles in it, you will kill them. I hate to be so blunt, but I have a feeling those aren't your intentions.
Like turtlesrock said, be sure to read the main site and basic care info. Turtles are an expensive hobby, and having two creates it's own set of problems.
Welcome aboard!
