Looking to build stackable melamine enclosures for my geckos. They will be 48w x 24d x 16h. I wanted to know how to put belly heat in there. Couple of things that crossed my mind were a UTH under a tile or maybe a whole tile floor. Maybe a UTH under a sheet of glass that covers the whole floor.
If I were to make flooring out of foam and grout, could i put heat cable between the foam and grout to give heat that way?
I know, there are a lot of questions. I appreciate any help everyone can give.

Well, since they are stackable have you considered back heat? I'm worried the UTH won't be able to breath very well in the setup you described. I would not recommend putting something heavy like glass over it. I'd stick to plastic based products. If I were you, I'd contact reptile basics or animal plastics and ask them how they do it. Also, look into heat cable. :)
