I don't think it's a good idea. Turtles sometimes bite (and swallow) non-food items, such as the plastic plants in their tanks. Eating styrofoam could kill the turtle.

For a tiny, tiny baby turtle, that is just fine. But an adult turtle needs a much, much bigger tank than that. An adult turtle needs a 20-gallon tank (30 inches long and 12 inches wide).

What are the white clear things swimming in the triops tank?
possibly daphnia, baby triops or fairy shrimp. If you have just hatched your triops it is more likely to be fairy shrimp, but if they are over a week old they should have eaten all of the fairy shrimp, daphnia can become a problem when triops are well fed and dont eat them, but they wont hurt the triops

Does sand hurt the triops?
A sandy bottom shouldn't bother triops. In fact triops like sand in the bottom of the tank because they can lay their eggs in the sand and cover them up. This prevents other triops from eating the eggs, and lets you hatch another batch later. Just make sure you wash the sand first, and don't use ocean sand because it contains salt that could mess up the pH for your triops.

How often do triops breed a new generation of triops?
Under proper circumstances, triops can begin reproducing at about two weeks of age. Eggs will need to be removed from the tank and allowed to dry out, then rehydrated. Dried eggs can be viable for years if properly stored, so the timing of a new batch of triops is really up to the breeder.
