Softshells aren't exactly the basking type like painted turtles are. Make sure it has full spectrum lighting over it's tank. It doesn't need a basking spot, because one will rarely bask. Give it as many pellets it can eat, I can't really say how many to give it, because I do not know how big your turtle is, and how big the pellets are.
