I would just be concerned with the aro getting the turtle's head.
I ended up placing him back in the small tank for this reason. Every time he went for air sticking his neck out, the aro would get a little too close for comfort. Didn't want to risk it.

Mud and musk turtles do not require the UV light that other turtles need and are not aggressive at all. I think that it will do just fine in that tank but I would recommend that you make sure he cant crawl out of it and that you add some more furniture for him to climb on and rest to breath. Tall plants or floating plants do this job really well but he will eat away at those so I would suggest finding some fake water lettuce or something.
Dang I had no idea! Thanks for the info... So do they not need a basking spot either? Just warm water? Sorry not a turtle guy but I have been thinking about being one for years lol.
