    Heating pad question

    So, currently i have no belly warmth for my baby and i'm looking change that very quickly. Now, i have a climbing tree on the one side of my tank, water dish in the middle, and a hide rock at the other end. I'm only getting a heating pad to cover roughly 1/3 of the tank (relatively big tank, bigger than what it needs), which section should i put it in, I was thinking where the hide rock is but thats my cool side of the tank, does that matter with it being belly heat? Or should it be on the warm side with my tree? or in the middle? lol any help is greatly appreciated

    Re: Heating pad question

    my own experience is put it on one side (not in the middle ) and provide more than one identical hide (to let her choose temperature not hide). See my topics few weeks old (the same issues I had).

    Thanks for the advice and quick responce, i have a log hide but switched to the rock as i've read that log hides arnt that great (for obvious reasons) but maybe i'll throw it back in and put it against the black side of the tank. CHEERS!
