Hi!
I have a 1100 gram RES and would like to know your opinions about suitable basking dock for her. Later on I am going to fix high-end platform above the tank but before that I will need a temporary solution. How about Zoo-Med Turle Dock (large one)?

She might be too heavy for it. You might want to look into the acrylic basking dock... search for pictures of a turtle named "Sheba"

If she's over a kilo, I think you're going to need something bigger than even the large zoo-med dock.
You could build one (There's a topic right now where there's lots of pictures of basking areas), or as Steve suggested, there is an acrylic dock out there that's pretty popular, and seems to hold up for even hefty turtles

we have a large turtle and are temporarily using the largest zoo med turtle dock but have other flat rocks that sort of make steps up to it from the side and also hold it up so that it can support her weight.
