Question Heat Tape placement

Since an ATB is aboreal would it be better to put the heat tape on top of the enclosure or under it?

Undertank heat is definately better for mantaining humidity. I switched my ATBs to it. had better luck feeding too.

I just put it on the bottom. As Greg said, it helps with humidity, as well as ATB are not strictly arboreal, if they want to snuggle up to it they will Easier to get warm on the floor than the ceiling
