You said in another post that you were going to try earthworms, which is a good choice. Keep trying things that move and things that smell. Bloodworms are also often good for tempting turtles to eat (I've used the frozen ones that are nutritionally enriched and have no parasites). If your turtle is truly anorexic, I'd even try a little cat/dog food (this isn't good nutritionally, but getting your turtle to eat is the number one thing right now). Keep your turtle warm--basking area 88-90F and get that submersible water heater to keep the temp at 78-80F.
