LOL, I got ya. I had alot of help from some very successful keepers both on this forum and off. I didn't do this by myself but I did find the right people to help me. I have yet to install the pond filter. A local reptile store uses one in their pond with 2 gators and a number of turles. It seems to work well. I can always use the filter to pump water out. The substrate is between 1 1/2' and 2'. I used a yard of top soil, a yard of sand, and then a Ton of leaves. I will be adding more and more leaves as time goes on.

To be honest I have little to no will to work with anything else at this time. I love these animals even though currently I hardly see them. However the cage looks nice in the mean time LOL! I tell you, it's a real treat to see them even if it's only for a few quick seconds before they run off to hide.
