    I have my pacs in a rubbermade shelving container. Ive seen/read reviews on heat pads saying that they are designed for glass only. Anyone have/reccomend a heating pad that works on plasric rubbermade?

    The Zoo Med UTH for Hermit Crabs are safe for plastic and the Zoo Med UTH model# RH-7 is safe they are small maybe 4"x5".

    Most pads aren't safe for plastic. If you're doing a rack system you'll want to use heat tape or heat cable with a thermostat to make sure it doesn't get too hot. Search this section for a tread about rack systems.
