    UTH dilemma

    So I'm setting up my bp enclosure before I get him and I finally got my temp controller in the mail (zilla 1000watt) . I also purchased the zoomed 20gallon uth thinking it will pair well and be good enough for my budget. Well I've ran into this problem. The probe on the controller is huge and won't let the uth adhere correctly ... Any suggestions? Workarounds?

    Tape the uth on. It'll create a better hold than the sticky of the UTH.

    You could also just hot glue the probe to the inside of the tank. Hot glue is easy to pull off of glass and the snake can't knock it around.

    Yeah I saw on another post where aluminum tape was being used but I was just worried for the big gap in the middle where the pad wouldn't be touching the glass pretty much where the snake would lay.
