Now are you talking about a thermostat probe or a thermometer probe? What kind of heat mat are you using? The uth doesnt heat the bottom much. It heats whatever it is stuck to so a thermostat probe does not go on the bottom of the uth. If your using a uth that sticks to your tank peal back the uth just enough to put the probe in the middle of the uth and then press the uth back into place. You need a temp gun or a thermometer with probe to check your temps. Make sure you get around 88-90 inside the tank, in order to achieve these temps you will have to set your thermostat a little higher then 90. I can't give you an exact number to set it to bc it varies by setup.
