I am unhappy with the temperature in Carl's enclosure by a few degrees. The ambient temperature on the warm side is around 80, with a basking spot at 92. The basking spot temp is fine, I have actually never seen Carl bask under it, but I was thinking of putting an UTH on the side of the tank just to raise the ambient a little higher.
First of all, would this work? And would I put the heat pad on the inside of the glass or the outside?
Last but not least, this particular heat pad has been used before, and while it still works like a charm, the adhesive doesn't work anymore. Is there anything I can use (like aquarium sealant or similar) to stick it to the side of the tank without damaging the pad or lessening it's effectiveness?
