I’m about to build an enclosure for a new Brazilian rainbow boa however I want to use heat tape because it’s cheaper than the heat panels and is cheaper than heat bulbs it will be on the thermostat I do know that. My question is with heat tape if I put plexiglass over the heat tape with the spacer which then I’ll silicone it off so that no water gets on it will that be OK and has anybody done it before. The heat tape will be inside the enclosure.
