It would be awesome if you could, but it's not a good idea.

Unless you want your cichlids to die, don't put a turtle in there
I unfortunately had to experience it myself, because i didn't know
I put a 1 inch turtle with my 4 year old 4 inch goldfish, after only beeing 1 hour in there, the turtle had eaten half of it's body :(
Hope that helps
Good luck

If the turtle doesn't outright kill and eat the fish, the wastes it produces will. Very high output.
You CAN put it in, but...
