Question Turtle Dock

I have had my musk Turtles for 3 days now and they do not appear to be using the turtle dock that i have provided for basking, is this normal?

Musks turtles don't very often bask - our 2 never have. They can cope with deep water but they do need a few resting places on the way up.

As EB said they do need time to settle in, but its quite likely that they won't ever use the dock.
