Great job. You're gonna love it when it's all finished. So will your animals.
Looks great! Love your MEP! I have 2 the same age...How are you going change the water in the pond?
AmazingFinally starting to get some growth form plants and weeds - just need to put down some rock around the pond:

Do you have heating in there?
As a pond specialist I have to say I understand your choice for Filter, but they are no joke the most PITA to clean types of filter of any on the market, especially with turtles/tortoises.
Better to get a good quality pump, maybe a Tidal Wave 2, and a Matala Biosteps filter. DIY is even better but PM for that info.
As with all suggestions throughout the history of time, yes they are more expensive up front, but the difference in maintenance and quality over time is easily worth 3x the difference.
This is the smallest rig we put on any small water feature to promise zero hairs pulled out over time.
Rest of your enclosure is Tortoise nirvana!!
Wow! richosullivan you did a great job! The elevated nightbox is really nice so it won't get wet when it gets into the rainy season. Love your pictures, especially the ones where you have your torts in their new digs.
