I was thinking about taking it off the bottom of the tank and reapply it to the side of the tank for her snake. I was wondering 1) with it on the side of the tank, should a thermostat still be needed? I'm guessing yes, but I was wondering on other folks thoughts on the matter. And 2) CAN it be removed and placed in a different spot? Or is it just stuck there?

1- Yes it can but I would still use a stat
2- yes but after you get it removed plug it in and make sure it still works, then cover it with foil tape (sticky side to sticky side) and use foil tape along the edger to place it where you want.

It can be on the side for some creatures but not bp's as they need the belly heat. As long as you get a t stat you will be good

Negative, they do not NEED it if the room is properly heated.
