And you do need the wire/insulator clip set for Heat tape: rbi will install the clip/cord for. 99 cents. You have to select installation option before adding set to cart.

I will say again, that if you use heat tape you have to have a thermostat! Heat tape will get extremely hot without temperature control.

That's what I thought, thanks for all the information and dealing with my noobyness.
I'll order the heat tape, connectors, and controller soon
