Yes. When he calls the flop he has to like something about his hand. Betting the turn here is standard.

you did right, imo. you are protecting against/charging premium prices to chase the flush. this isnt a board you can get "cute" with when you have bottom set.
LHE is a game where your skill keeps you breakeven until you hit your rush of random BS.

Nothing beats flopping quads while dropping a duece!

Small point, but I only bet $7 or $8 on the turn. Your big flop raise was great and it inflated the pot for you, so it will be very easy to get it all-in no matter what. With that in mind, you can encourage him to call with a flush draw/TP/2P while still denying proper odds to the flush draw. A $7 bet and call on the turn makes the pot $26.50 and leaves you with $13 behind. With a read that your opp likes to chase, or plays loosely post-flop, I like the $10 turn bet better.
