livingart Posted October 29, 2018 Report Share Posted October 29, 2018 Managed to acquire an old water trough 4 metres across and about 1 metre deep Want to make a simple Turtle pond so will just create a floating island for the turtles to get out of the water, Used some close cell foam to create a platform One of those cheap storage containers from M10 to create a dirt area so they can lay in. Painted it and tied to sides to keep it fairly central in pond so the turtles can't climb out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

livingart Posted November 7, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2018 Yes though they will probably end up eaten by the turtles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livingart Posted November 8, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2018 Filled pond up so need to add a top where the floating islands are to stop the turtles from climbing out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
