The facination with Tubs???

[Gloryhound]

FOr all you tub folks...what UTH pad do you use?
I think the Cobra is the only one that says it can be used with plastic...but it gets way too hot.
I suppose that is where a rheoastat comes into play, but then i worry if the rheo fails...
Thanks.

Flex Watt is what we use as I build racks to keep the tubs in. With Flex Watt I can built a 12" X 11" heat mat for around $5. In our display type enclosure we use Zoo Med type UTH's since they are in the cage and thus are required to be water proof.

Get a Thermostat as the rheostat will require daily tweaking if not more! I have rheostats in a drawer that I can use as an emergency back up.
