Oh I thought that the heat mat wouldnt be able to penetrate through the wood? Now im confused have been researching and people have been sawing to put the heatmat inside of the wooden viv
Thanks

Could a heat mat penetrate through a ceramic tile? Ceramic is very dense and used for insulation.
You should ask the store you're buying it from what they recommend, but putting an electric device on the floor of a vivarium seems like a bad idea. Water bowl, urates...even if the odds of something going wrong are low, having electric current and liquids together inside the enclosure should be avoided.
