    can you use the flex watt heat tape with glass terrariums? I am just not very happy with the UTH I am currently using. I started having some heat issues the other day (keeping the temp up in my girls enclosure) and I am pretty sure that it has something to do with the UTH.

    Ultratherms and Herpstats here Because my studio gets so cold, my boyfriend built my racks to accommodate Ultratherm mats and strips, so that I can use larger basking spots that are set to run at lower temps.
