    Fax your receipt to ZooMed, maybe they'll replace it for you?

    When a pad loses it's stickiness, that is a big win. You can tape it down and now you have UTH that you can switch to another tank much more easily or replace easily if it fails.

    Re: heating pad stickyness?

    Use foil tape. For all of my UTHs, I placed foil on the sticky side and then use foil tape to stick on the enclosure. That way I can easily reuse the UTH

    Re: heating pad stickyness?

    I would foil tape it or use aluminum wrap. But I would also make sure the UTH is in decent shape now that its un stuck
