What does my red eared slider need?

Sandra R asked:
I got a RES about a month ago. He’s 4 inches long and 4 years old. He has a 20 gallon filtered tank, a basking dock and a UV lamp. I mostly feed him pellets, but I give him a big mealworm along with pellets every other day. My question is, what else does he need to stay healthy and happy? What should I be feeding him? Does he need supplements or anything else?
