under tank or in tank

I have a question........i know that i full of them, but any help is appreciated. we are going to use a human heat pad in Sixx's aquarium. It is a 30 gal with a screen top. do i put it under his paper towels or do i put it under the tank?????? trying to get him a little warmer. temp is down to 85. thanks for listening and any advice is appreciated!!!

Under the tank - make sure there is a small gap below to keep heat from building up. Inside is not safe.

thanks Smulkin...sorry so late, been at boy scouts.

Bah - no need to apologize and nary a prob. Glad you asked.

Our youngest had his troop meeting tonight as well.

Heck yeah Boy Scouts.. I'm an Eagle

boy scouts my mother would never put the patches on and i would look like a retard i eventually found no fun in it messing up all the little tasks because i didn't want to do them and i quite you will never find me in the middle of the woods lost anyways.
