I just got a nice space heater for my herp room, so it's at a constant 80 degrees. I wonder if 3" heat tape would be enough to sufficiently warm some of my medium size snake cages.. like a 35 qt tub (around 20" x 15")

If it is, then I can have 11 of my snakes on one thermostat, which would save me money (otherwise I need to buy two or more t-stats)

What do you guys think?
