I have a Russian Tortoise and three Bearded Dragons. I want the tortoise to have companions. I want to build an enclosure where they are not in the same pen but are still able to see each other while at the same time having enough of a visual barrier to where they won't try to go through or hurt themselves trying....any ideas?

I would do that but they need a visual barrier or they will stress and the tort will constantly try to push through.....

put their cages next to each other where they can see each other, or get another tortoise

We do not recommend mixing animals from different habitats or continents- and this does both. The tortoise may appreciate companions (and note the 'MAY'), but they usually ignore non-tortoise cagemates- and may in fact try to bite or harass them (for being in the tortoise's territory.)
This is not a good idea, but it is a nice intention!
