    Ditto. I have one whose RHP I unplugged because the RHP from the T8 below it creates a hot spot of 85-86F in the upper enclosure. I have a BRB in there and he's fine.

    The tops of RHP's get quite hot and that heat does transfer to the enclosure above it, unless you put an insulator or spacers to allow air exchange, between the enclosures.
