I think you need to look into an ATBA. She will definitely get out of that again..they are very good climbers. You can cut egg crate to fit on the top of your tank like this.Its very easy to cut so that it fits around your equipment. ImageImage

Yeah I have a black gate thing I will use. I don't have to worry too much about the light not being enough, right? For the time ebing I'll just take out the basking pad while I'm not at home.

Just remember to secure it down..they are strong. And no, you dont have to worry about the light what so ever :) Thats why its awesome. Its only like $8 for a very large sheet. Its really easy to cut if you take a heavy file and just tap it down where you want to cut. If you cut it to fit, usually the basking lamps will hold it down

No I mean with my black gate thing. Kinda hard to explain it without a picture, w/e, I'll get a picture soon.

There is some algae there, you can easily clean it with a toothbrush. Make sure it's new and be careful while holding your turtle when she's wet. She'll squirm a bit and maybe pee on you. I can't tell what else is going from those pictures just yet.
