Thank you guys so much! So I do have an animal plastics t8 that I have my noodle in (his name is Snape). I have heat tape currently and the probe is under the tank between the heat tape and the tank so that I am doing correctly. Now my question is.., I have the heat tape and the RHP on the same side (right side of my tank is the hot side where I have them). Now I previously used only belly heat but I live in Massachusetts and it gets quite cold here during the winter. With that, I live in the basement and the ambient temps in my room are about 68 for example (usually 70 but just for arguments sake 68). A lot of ppl say a RHP will be more than enough to handle that. So is it detrimental for Snape to turn off belly heat when he has been used to that for the past few months and solely focus on the RHP for his heat source. Or is there a way to run both the RHP and the heat tape safely and comfortably for him on the same side of my T8.
