Could you define deep and shallow in this context?

And has anyone done any expierimenting with the placement of heating cables 
in the gravel. Not pattern, but rather vertical position within the gravel 
bed (i.e. 0.5" above the bottom / 2" from the top, middle, etc...)? I would 
think the small currents would have optimum locations within the gravel bed.
