Read the ZooMed packaging - only the very smallest of their under tank heaters are rated for plastic enclosures (I think it's" 4 X 6")
Personally I wouldn't use flexwatt in your situation unless you had it permanently attached to a rack. If you just place it loose under your tub it may eventually get damaged.
This is a much better option, not cheap, but you get what you pay for:
