You can feed them krill or baby shrimp at this size. Just as a treat not a lot.

Krill is fine for a treat. You can also do crickets, tuna, salmon, earthworms etc. Those type of protein you should only do one serving a month though. Pick one of the above (not one of each), and you can give that for a treat. Usually one wouldn't feed pellets on the day they got a protein treat.
Also, start introducing veggies to your turtles diet.

Check out the stickies at the top of this forum for what to feed/what not to feed, and the feeding section of the main site.
