    I'll see if I can use a hot screw driver.

    Ok well the point of the tub is that there ISN'T a screen. The objective of that DIY is to cover as much of the screen as possible to trap heat and humidity. You should not need to do this for a tub, only a tank with a screen top.

    I only did it because it helped, it was more of an experiment type thing to see if it would work, those no animal in the tub now. But it did raise my humidity and ambient tubs compared to when it was just the natural tub. haha natural tub :P

    I think what I will do, since it can get super cold here in the next couple months when it starts turning into winter, is use the heat pad I have now on the cool side, put it on the dimmer, and keep it on low, since it was running low 80's. Get some flex watt and a thermostat and set that to about 93-94 so the snake has a hot spot. Because it can, and will drop into the 60's sometimes in the middle of winter.
