females ornates can get 6"+ you should start looking for 18x18 footprint tank. i have mine in 18x18x12, and not really liking it, i will probably switch her and my male who is in 18x18x18. when she gets mad - every time i do anything to her tank, like substrate changes or she is hungry or need to poop or just phase of the moon lol in 12 height she can reach top screen if she wants to, i don't think at this point she is in any danger of burning herself on a heat lamp, it is in the middle of the top and she goes all over the glass, but i would rather get some distance.
