Thanks for that. I was worrying about the flexwatt all night so its a relief to hear that the temps I'm getting are normal.

So, if my ambient room temp is kept between eighty and eighty three degrees, you think the tubs are warm enough? They're just you're standard under the bed plastic and I'm currently using paper towels as bedding.

I should mention also that I have the heat tape sitting on a wire shelf so I suppose heat could potentially escape underneath? I guess that's the result of bad planning, should I put something under it? What would you recommend in that case?
