If at all possible, Peel off a bit of your UTH and stick the probe under. Get as close to the middle of it as possible.

How about if I cover the probe with foil tape? This would keep a breeze from hitting the sensor and the foil would hold heat pretty well. I will be upgrading to a larger tank within a few months and will likely just leave the peel away attached to the uth and tape the whole think to the bottom of the cage. Think that will be alright?
