Subject: Alternative to heating cables
They sell reptile heaters pads that could stick to the bottom of glass
enclosures. I use one on a tank with gravel cover and it keeps the
gravel on top of it nice and warm. I was just considering it as a cheap
alternative to heating cables. I can't recall the biggest size they make
them in, or how much they go for, but I'm pretty sure they are
dirt-cheap when compared to Dupla. I can't imagine any "risks"
involved--except maybe the thing running too hot. Anyone think of any
potential hazards? Anyway, anyone have an extimate of the cost for
sufficient amount of dupla cable (or is it cables? Im not familiar with
the dupla hook-up) to heat, let us say, 50 gal tank?
Thanks-
