    Re: Something wrong with my new BP?

    What about if I just put the sensors under a repti carpet, then put bedding on top the carpet? Or I can use hot glue like you said.

    do you need a tank heater for the cool side? I have a larger one on warm side, Im thinking maybe the cool side is too hot since I have a blue light over it. And maybe the warm side is too warm, he's always in the cool side hide

    Honestly, they'll find a way, maybe not immediately but there's no telling when and it's the kind of thing you really don't want to happen when you're away. Hot glue would be the safest thing, plus you can easily remove it as you please

    I cant get the glue to hold the wire on the side of tank, so I will use tape for that. The sensor is glued to the bottom, good idea thanks man
    changed his substrate to coconut husk, and he seems happier... always crawling around in it and being active. Didn't think a substrate could make that much of a difference.

    Take the tape off if it's on the inside. Never ever have tape inside the enclosure. Nothing sticky. Not an option.

    *~* Nothing sticky (tape, stick on gauges, Velcro) goes into your enclosure! Again...NOTHING sticky goes into your enclosure....EVER! *~*

    This is a picture of an injury caused by tape in a snake enclosure, please remove the tape from your tank immediately!

    I'd say it's fine. Maybe if the wires are all in the same area of the tank then you could use something to bundle and tie them together, that way they would be more neat? Just some idea that I thought of just now lol.
