Under Tank Heaters and Tank Temperature
From what I've been able to find, it seems that under tank heater performance is hindered depending on the type of substrate.
I guess most people use it as many people keep leos on substrates like paper towels or thin reptile carpet. When using something like sand, bed-a-beast/forest-bedding, these are thicker and absorb most of the heat -- meaning the end result is a warm substrate but not really a warm tank -- which is why i'm questionning this heating choice vs a heat lamp.
Thoughts?
