    I always think about this. would you recommend under the water area or under the glass of the tank under the water area?
    So under the plastic (tupperware) water hole or under straight glass (under water, and under tank. so 1 pad under both)

    I know you're not asking me but I thought I'd give you a quick answer and opinion and mine would be either would be fine, though under the tub might be better and be less chance of cracking the glass but only with tub water dishes, not ceramic. The heat might not heat the water much but the frog will still get heated from the bottom glass and tub. Just be sure to put it on a thermostat or you could burn the frog or possibly melt the tub. Tape the probe under the tank on top of the heat mat and then use a digital thermometer that can go into water on top of the heat mat and adjust the temp on the tuermostat to maintain the correct temperature you're trying to achieve

    If you are going to use a UTH in a water area I would place it as mentioned under the tank to the glass and then put the tub over that spot. If its just straight glass and the UTH I think when doing water changes if that water isn't remotely close to the same temp and is colder pouring right over the matt and glass my cause a crack. But I would agree with a thermostat and if its done properly it should work.
