    I have since taped the probe down...
    You need a different method of attachment! One should never ever have tape inside of an enclosure, as snakes very easily get it loose, no matter how secure you think it is! The resulting damage can range from the tape pulling off a few scales to actually ripping the skin off. You can use a dab of hot glue to attach it, or you can sandwich the thermostat probe between the heat mat and the glass on the outside and adjust the thermostat setting as needed to maintain 90 degrees on the glass.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. ~ Herm Albright
