Re: Heat Pad and Tubs ???
As long as you use a separate thermostat with the heat pad, it will be fine. I attach all my UTHs with foil tape.
And yes, use the little pegs.

I was hoping to do that and just put it on top of my RBI CB70.....good idea ...if you have any tubs set up like this can you post a pic ....Ps of course I will be using a thermostat !
Here is how I have my Exo-Terra heat pads mounted on my tubs...
Secure the thermostat probe with aluminum tape...

then just tape down the UTH. You don't need to peel the adhesive backing off of the UTH, leave it on, then you can remove and re-use the UTH as needed. And stick on the little rubber feet...
