    RHP in Glass tank
    I have an atasuki tank and want to buya radiant heat panel to put in it but I cannot figure out how I will install it ?
    All the websites selling the RHP say they come with 2 to 4 screws but I don't see how that will hold it up since the top of the atasuki tank is a screen.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Pictures would be helpful too!

    I use RHPs in all my cages but mine are PVC. Just a thought, but how about mounting your RHP to the bottom of the screen with two pieces of wood strips on top of the screen. So basically you would sandwich the screen with the RHP and the wood. As far as for the cord and probe, I would just drill some holes through the screen the size that you need. Some might think it's not pretty, but it will work

    That's really ingenious! I did not think of that. Thankfully there are some holes on the side of the top (for some reason) so I would not have any problem with the cables, but adding pieces of wood to screw the panel in would be (most likely) the safest option.
