On the airstones, what do you connect to it at the end of the tubing (the tubing that goes outside the tank)?

What are the benefits of airstones? Should I put a couple of them in my tank if I have them lying around?

airstones can be entertaining for the turtles, and they also provide oxygen to the beneficial bacteria in your filter that helps them thrive. So I say toss 'em in!
