I was using both a heat lamp and a UTH, but the UTH cracked the glass on the bottom of the tank. I had to make some repairs to that and now I keep the UTH off.

Just curious...did you have the bottom of the tank raised, as to allow air flow underneath the tank and not to pinch the cord? I only ask because a lot of new keepers make that mistake...and end up with UTHs overheating and causing problems.
