For those of you who use AP T-10 cages, got a few questions. So I talked to Ali today and she told me there is no gap between cages when you stack them. Now my question for you guys using them, if you use the heat tape they offer, are you all gaping the cages? Ali said you can use furniture adhesive pads to provide a gap but i'm wondering what you guys are encountering. Are you getting any overheated heat tapes?

Second question, how are your AP cages holding heat in the winters with only heat tape? I keep my room around 75ish in the winters and I've only used RHPs. I'm wondering if heat tape will be enough to keep the cage warm in the winter. Also if I do need to add a RHP come winter and there is no gap between stacked cages, then that would mean I would have to use a dremel and cut my own channel for a RHP cord? Or run it out the side of the cage? What do you guys do about that for those who have had to add a RHP in winter? Also how do you guys mount the RHPs? I've mounted them before and they use 2 1/8" screws but it the cages have no gap, would I be routing a hole deep enough to recess the screw heads into the top of the cage? BTW this would be for a T-10 with a shelf so I mean I can run the cord inside and secure it with cable clamps and drill a hole in back to run the cord out but the bolt head issue will still be there.
