Does anyone have any experience using this with Pyxies or similar terrestrial frogs (like Pacmans or toads)? I watched a video about them on Big Apple Pet supplies and they sound like slightly more complicated zoo med heat mats. The host even said they were designed to go underneath glass tanks. In my experience heat mats only heat the wall they are adhered to and don't really do much to warm the cages if they are applied to the sides of the walls (like we amphibiphiles do for reasons that should be well known by now). That's why I've always used infrared bulbs, albiet low wattages of no higher than 50 watts.
But does heat tape somehow emit more powerful heat waves than mats? Is there something I'm missing or not understanding about side-wall heating elements?
