thanks

The struts on the bottom of the visionarium make it a bit hard to find an appropriate UTH. I use ultratherm 6 x 23" on my visionariums. This works very well. I found the 6 x 17 did not do a sufficient job. As with any UTH, use a thermostat to avoid overheating.

The zoomed 1-5 gal won't melt plastic, but i don't think it'll cover enough space. The larger one (10-20 gal) doesn't specifically say it won't melt plastic, but it never has for me

so you use it on one and have no trouble? does the 1-5 gal reach a high enough temp?

Not on a visionarium. I use that one on a rubbermaid container I keep my mealworms in

ok well i think that will work on it then or at least on the bottom on cus my stand is open when the heating pad would go

zoo med uth's dont fit on the bottom of visionarium tanks because they have weird bottom. I use the ultratherm heatpads they are way better in my opinion than the zoo med ones anyways.
