Re: Baby Ball Python Setup
I don't know if i'm understading this correctly or not based on all your posts, but your UTH is sitting on the foil pad you constructed and not touching the foil you have taped onto the bottom of your tank?

You tape the UTH to the foil pad, with the sticky side facing upwards, towards the tank, then just set the tank on top of it.

Re: Baby Ball Python Setup
Cool, one other thing, where do you keep your thermometer?

Re: Baby Ball Python Setup
you should have two, or an indoor outdoor one. one on the cool side, one on the warm. I keep mine close to the bottom, because that's where the snake is, they don't stay 6 inches up the side of the cage.

Re: Baby Ball Python Setup
I have an acu-rite thermometer/hygometer. The probe stays on the cool side of the tank, but where should i have the console? I have a 10g tank btw.

Re: Baby Ball Python Setup
tape it on the side of the glass all the way at the bottom. i have the same one, i just have the probe on the warm side. just lay the prob on top of the substrate, or else it will read the temp of the cage, not what he or she feels.

Re: Baby Ball Python Setup
I set the unit on the cool side and the probe is under the substrate below where I place the hide on the warm side.

Re: Baby Ball Python Setup

Re: Baby Ball Python Setup
So I was playing with the thermometer and I noticed there's a good difference in temperature reading between the unit and the probe.. which is more accurate? i've tested both on the warm side and both on the cool side and there's a difference in temp readings... or is mine just broken?
