    Ap question?
    Alone have a pic of the bottom of their t8 or t10 cage? I will be using an ultratherm but there is no recessed area for it Ali said. So I need spacers for the bottom of the cage to create that air zone? I thought there was a recessed area for it.

    there is not a recessed area for the UTH but their is a channel for a probe. TBH i don't have my T8 on risers as Ultratherms are fairly low-temp and are (obviously) regulated.

    does anyone else not raise up their APs?

    EDIT: no photo, sorry. :oops:

    Right so how does your t8 sit flush with the uth there? I'm so confused. Even if I just glued three pennies together to sit at each corner I'm good. I just don't see how the cage would sit flush on my dresser with the ultra therm there.

    I’ll be watching this thread closely so thanks for posting.

    I can take a pic of mine when I return home. I just got it a few days ago. It looks like there is a panel to the right side that can be removed for a mat or tape.

    The issue with mine is I bought it off a guy who used it for a few months. He had a RHP installed on the left side for some reason. He kept a snake that didn’t need or he didn’t use a UTH so I guess he wasn’t thinking in that regard and didn’t think about selling it.

    I want the uth under the RHP So I was going to lift mine up a bit and install the UTH on the left side as well.

    I got these cool plant lifts off eBay because I thought I’d need them for my exoterra but that already had a slight lift so I didn’t use it.

    peeps will put risers on their enclosures when stacking to avoid heat sources from one enclosure affecting the heating/husbandry of another. for example, a RHP on a bottom enclosure can affect the floor temps on the top enclosure w/o space for airflow.

    the connection bit hangs out from underneath the enclosure; this thing:

    so the UTH is flat against the bottom.

    good point. i only have one AP so i didn't think about the need to raise them off one another.

    I got these on eBay cause I thought they looked cool and we do all this work to make a nice display I didn’t want to do pennies or some cheap looking coasters or something so I got these they were like $25 for 6... I liked them just an idea. They are called plant feet and there are many styles and variety. We’ll see how it goes or maybe I will just leave it flush to the stand I got for it. I did cheap out on that and got a tv stand from amazon for like $25

    i installed mine myself. idk about Pro Products but the RBI ones are super simple to DIY; all you need is a drill or a good screwdriver + elbow grease.

    hopefully someone with experience chimes in here.

    Yea I thought those pot feet were awesome and screamed “SNAKE” lol. Def worth a look they are big and heavy too and def seem durable and sturdy they have a nice wide base so should make a cool platform. I’ll let y’all know how they turn out once I set this bad boy up
