Their is a cage forum here on kingsnake that has alot of interesting idea's on builbing,heating an what not on caging.In my opinion,I wouldnt glue it,because then it would be a pain to replace if ever need be,Plus I would definatley cover it with some tub surround or somthing similar.Hope this helps,Eric[Hypoboa]
