    Default Unintended heating of the tankfloor.

    Hi!

    I have discovered that since I rearranged my vivs, the lighting for the bottom tank is heating the floor of my two vivs containing my P. Edulis and Fantasy frog.
    The glass doesn't get that hot but the frogs are a little warm when I pick them up.

    Since I know that it's not recommended to have a heatingpad under the tank as heatsource I'm wondering if this is dangerous for them too?

    Yeah I would suggest moving the tanks. They need to be able to move around to cool off. With heat coming from the bottom they wouldn't be able to do that.
