Does the filter tube extend? Does the water have to be filled to the top to use?

Yes, it includes the additional tube to extend. It will be better to fill filter case completely with water before it starts. Otherwise, it will take some time to pump water up. (Water must at least cover the motor.)

What if the motor doesn't start or makes a mechanical noise?

Make sure the impeller is free to rotate.

After a powerout, will this filter restart on its own?

Yes, the motor will restart by itself once the power turns on.

Can I use this in a turtle tank?

It is not recommended for turtle tanks.

How often would I have to change the cartridge and intake sponge?

Regular cleaning of the filter and its parts every two weeks. Replace filter cartridge monthly and replace intake sponge every 2-3 months.
