Fantastic pics and I especially love the second to the last one---that turtle in the duck weed ghillie suit is perfect

Really cool pics! Very nice pond enclosure too! Great job. What types of turtles do you keep in there? Are those also enclosures behind the pond?

I would love to have something like this in my backyard. Thanks for the pics!

I've got a pair of false maps (male & female), a Peninsula Cooter, a Yellow Belly Slider and I was recently given a hybrid - Yellow Belly Slider x Red Eared Slider. I'm erecting some fencing around the pond today as our new dog has decided to start investigating the pond and I obviously don't want him thinking the turtles are playthings.

Behind the pond is my outdoor enclosure for my baby leopard tortoise.

Hey you have an awesome enclosure for your herps! I have a very big [60 gallon] about 6ft by 4ft plastic bin for my tort! XD I know, but I have a budget. It has a screen top for it too and lots of plants and room.

I'm running a Hozelock Aquaforce 4000 solids pump with a Hozelock Bioforce 5500 pressurised filter with UV clarifier. Also I've got a lot of water mint which is good for water quality.

Had to dog proof the pond the other day after our new puppy took an interest and an unexpected dip.
