Re: Heat Lamps or UTHs

As fair as I have been told, UTH is the better option for humidity now in a rubbermaid idk if the humidity is much of a issue but in the aquarium it most likely is. Also the UTH will just stick on the bottom and ur done with it that lamp you will have to find a way to mount it and not melt anything or allow your snake to touch it.

It's easier then you think adding a lamp to a rubbermaid, I just cut a hole a bit bigger then the dome in the lid and picked up a cheap screen lid, I cut the screen out to the size I needed and placed it over the hole, the only tricky part is attaching it. I used small screws going inside out and I cut the ends of the screws off. Pretty easy...
