sounds good to me I would wonder how you will set the heating unit up attaching it ot the tub or to the place it will sit. ( if room drafty consider a towel to help limit drafts and such) I also set everything up about 3 week befoer hand to see how the temps work out and if possible stock up now on some frozen rodents ( rat pups or so so you have a few on hand incase money goes poof and you not able ot get food items a few weeks. )
