Anything I could do to improve?

They also have a piece of slate to eat off.

Looks great! My personal suggestions would be to add a hide to the warmer area, and to make sure they can use that water dish (looks like quite a step in the photo).

Ok I shall add a shelter at warm end. They seem to be able to get in the bowl with ease.
Cheers

Great! I just thought I'd suggest that as I've heard some baby torts are shy, and having a warm hide makes them feel more secure to go over and bask or warm up. When I first got my tort I didn't have a hide on the warm side and he's only stay on the cool side.

Hi Daniel, Your enclosure looks great what are you using to up your humidity? I found that long strand sphargnum moss works well and if eaten seems to go through without problems. It is easy to keep damp by lightly misting. and my hatchling greeks love to hide in it. I have some on the cool end and on the warm end of their enclosure with a hide on both and one seems to hide in the hide one in the dirt and one always in the moss, go figure, I always said each tort has its own personality LOL.
