Secure them to the side of the tank and wrap the tank with those thermal safety space blankets that you would keep in the back of your car if you were taking a trip out in the boonies of alaska. That might work if you replace the packs as they cool. I think they can last close to 20 hours.
Wonderful idea on the thermal safety space blankets. I'll look into it. I used just normal towels for a day or so and they didn't work because they did not radiate any heat. Thank you for the good idea!
