i bought my fiance a baby red eared slider(1.5 inches) about two weeks ago, maybe.the little guy seem's to eat and swim normally, but he sleeps very very often.and falls asleep midway while running around.
my fiance's tank setup

is 20 gallon, tank

water temperature around 75 to 79 degrees.
she keeps him at her window where sunlight easily comes through, she even takes him out for some fresh sunlight almost everyday.
she feed's him turtle pellets and turtle brand shrimp.

her turtle seems to have somewhat of an eye infection in his right eye.
he eats normally and swims.

what can be wrong with the little guy?

thank you<3
