The zig zag thing is likely heat tape. You'll need something to heat your cage with. Heat panels are best followed by heat tape then lights. Yeah you can keep any size Chondro in a tub that is the right size for it. Tubs work well but they are hard to see through which is their only real draw back.

So I need a ZIG ZAG HEat Tape AND a heat panel AND a Light blub???

I thought I could just use a Heat Panel alone?

thanks

A heat panel would be the best to use not all three together.
