I agree with Ray. Fall is settilng in around here also. Eat comfort food and get back to it tomorrow. Even the turtles may just want to not be disturbed. 🤗.Will (my tortoise partner) set it up with a PVC coming from the bottom that I just have to tip down to the ground and it empties. I still have to use the shop vac to get what doesn't reach the drain. Then the time consuming part of filling each tub. I generally forget I'm doing this part and end up draining the over fill.
