Yep so far he looks a healthy little turtle. feeding a banana to him every once and awhile is ok but you shouldnt feed it to him on a regular basis.

What size is your tank that you have him right now? So we can suggest a filter. Make sure the filter is a minimum 3 times greater then the recomended tank size. Double works fine though right now since your turtle is small
