Oh my gosh, Lavendar, that set up is just SUPER!!! And your turtle has a BEAUTIFUL shell! Good for you. I think you will really see a change in your turt's attitude/happiness after all that effort.
BTW, if you are still having trouble with the dock sliding down the wall, here's a suggestion from me (I have the same dock & have had the same prob in the past). Get one of those BIG 2-piece magnets that scrubs algae off the wall (one side of the magnet is on the outside of the tank, the other magnet is on the inside with a scrub pad so you can scrub the algae by moving the outside magnet.....GENIUS). Park that 2-piece magnet UNDER the basking dock. The sliding STOPS. It's awesome. Just make sure you get the really big magnet-cleaner, the one that is for 350 gallon tanks. That magnet is really strong & can support a lot of weight. Good luck!
