What do you all think about the necessity of using an undertank heater for BD? I'm a member of an other forum, and people over there always suggests to have an undertank heater for a BD because the temperature drops at night...

I think I'm the only one that believes it is not necessary. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that BD need to have that drop of temperature at night for their metabolism. Of course, my night temps never go under 68 F.

Just wanted to know what you all think about that...I'm beginning to doubt of myself because I'm the only one who thinks they don't really need it.

Thanks for your comments!
