Here are some pics.
Starting point.





nearly done.





In this pic is my waterfall unfinished, it is the grey stones where my son has his hand, at the other end is temporary accomodation, under the tile is 3 small wooden hides so the smaller ones can get away from humpping Henri. lol :D:D:D

this is nearly finished, if you look closely on one of them you can see my sons hand, the stone design near his hand is the waterfall (unfinished), also the housing is unfinished, under the tile are several small wooden houses for the smaller torts to get away from humpping Henri :D

Thats excellent, I used to use that same water dish, I ended up getting rid of it.....would have been great if the torts only used the ramp but they don't and tend to end up on their backs, I put a couple small rocks in it and that worked well but soon it was just more trouble than it was worth.:D

Very nice! Are they going to spend all day outside? Looks hard to manage the other end for cleaning and such.

I love those water dishes. My russian doesn't use it much unless I put her in there but my greek is always 'self soaking' lol.

They will be out 24/7, cleaning of the other end isnt a problem, well it wont be when its finished, i have got to plant some seeds and more plants, put some top soil on, do the water fall and do some proper housing that is water tight, I have got to do 2 of those a small one for the small torts and a big one for mini and Henri, Most of the decorations are for aquariums that i had at work that was used or broken..i will keep posting pics,

Looks great, the only problem I see is that humping Henri will be depressed that he can't find anyone...:p. Like the waterfall idea.

I use that same water dish and I love it. I have placed some small pebbles and some marbles in it and since I did that no body has been found on their backs...your enclosure looks very nice
