Switching Enclosures..

[TinkerbellsMom]

Hey guys! So after hearing all your opinions and doing more research and seeing the temps & humidity readings I've decided my "fish tank" isn't the best for my 2MO old normal BP Tinkerbell. I am going to switch her into a sterlite tub but I need some info about heating.
I have a Zilla UTH but it says not to use on plastic. How do you guys heat your tubs?

I use Flukers UTH as they say they are ok for plastic and you must use a thermostat like the a herpstat or this one works ok and is cheaper Amazon.com: Hydrofarm MTPRTC Digital Thermostat For Heat Mats: Patio, Lawn & Garden (http://www.amazon.com/Hydrofarm-MTPRTC-Digital-Thermostat-Heat/dp/B000NZZG3S/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1342805064&sr=8-1&keywords=hydrofarm+thermostat)

I use flexwatt heat tape on a thermostat, but thats for a rack, if you are using an UTH, zilla or Flukers are fine just make sure you use a thermostat with the UTH, or Flexwatt... and the one Tekpc007 pointed out is awesome, (i have 8 of them) it works good, and make sure you have a small space under neath the tub to help with air flow.
