I am in the process of converting my 150 gallon tank with 80 gallons of water, to a completely filled American Cichlid tank that will have to house a turtle too. I have everything worked out with tank layout for getting the turtle a basking spot, but I need to contain the turtle above the waterline, which incidentally will be near the top of the tank edge. I need ideas of how to keep the turtle inside the tank when he decides to climb out to his basking spot, so I could do with some pictures that some of you have taken of filled tanks for turtles... There will be a very slight current in the tank, and I know that spotteds can't swim very well, so there will be many "hand holds" for him to climb out of the water when he needs to.
