What to do when the shell getting soft?

Dear all,

My Red-ear slider's shell is getting soft...
I thought about giving him much sunlight and maybe vitamins, but I need to know which vit. he needs (D3 I believe, I have the ExoTerra electrodize drops). Please let me know if you have any ideas. Thank you.

The best scenerio would be to put him outside and let the natural sun do its work, but if you can't, get a 5.0 uvb flourecsent light bulb.
