    Plastic vivs?

    So I watch videos about ball pythons everyday because I love learning new things about them. I saw that most people have them in plastic tubs because it's easier, cheapier, and less stressful on the snake. So I wanna do it! I know you can't really use a heat lamp because of melting or it could over heat the snake. So the UTH keeps the warm side warm obviously but will it keep the other side warm enough too? Do I tape the UTH directly on the bottom or do I use something to lift it off a bit? I've seen people tape it directly on the bottom but i am wondering what would be better? I have a glass tank right now but I feel like the glass is actually stressing her out because she's pretty timid and people walking by scared her a little
