Yes. Turtle's prefer darkness for sleeping, just like us. Just make sure you have a water heater if you find the water temperature drops overnight.

Yes you should try to mimic the activity of the sun as much as possible. The easiest thing to do is buy a light timer and set it for 12 hours on & 12 hours off.
