I live in Taiwan, where communication is limited...

I recently rescued a Brazil turtle that was not in the correct environment...they were only fed vegetables, which rotted and the water was rarely changed...and 2 out of the 3 died - so I took the last one...I don't know if it is going to make it...this is what I have via advice from the shops here...a red light lamp, krill, tetra reptile feed, and some reptile calcium powder to put in the water...he has an eye infection so I am treating it with anti biotics...but after a week they still won't open...also, I have yet to see it eat - ANYTHING...I change the water daily and keep him warm and give him natural sunlight...but he is not eating -

What do I do? How do I get him to eat...

Help - I don't want him to die...
