First off, big fish eats little fish, reptile eats big fish, mamal eats reptile...or something like that, anyway get off your PETA soapbox, yea he probly will eat a few, ive had him for about 2 and a half years, he only hunts when hes hungy, when i see him hunting i give him turtle food.
As for basking he sits on a white plastic support right under the light, he loves it there, you can see him in some of the pics through the glass top of the aquarium, the last pic is of the support from under neath, hes sitting on top.
Its fun to watch him hunt, hes slow clumsy and extremely bad at it. The fish he attacked had no fin damage, no chunks missing, it didnt even seem to that concerned with it, just annoyed that he couldnt swim well.
