    Yes, that sounds good. The thermometer probe is usually buried under the substrate so you can monitor most directly the hottest place the snake can get. Since the UTH is 90, it's probably cooler inside and I think most people would rather know than guess by how much. The thermostat probe should go between the UTH and the glass (or on the UTH if you've already attached it).

    You're right about the clips...I just didn't want to take any chances. I've heard they can be quite the escape artist at times!

    And sorry for hijacking this thread... :oops:...I'm new to the whole forum thing.
