Type works for aquarium heater

I bought this to keep the aquarium warm. I didn't want a large blunt string hanging from the bowl which was the only way to keep the water warm. I put the bowl on it. It worked somehow. The fish died because it had nothing to do with the heater. I understand this is not the intended use of this product but 🤷🏻‍♀️

Pros
  • practical item
Cons
  • retrofittable

Not bad for the price at Reptiles & Amphibians

Well all the reviews complain about the liability and I agree it's not the best at the moment it's still in the tank but going on the line. Now I don't like that I can't tell how crazy the temperature is. But I've learned it's for a toad, so I'm not worried. it makes that part of her tank warm and I find the cold nights we've had so far this fall she's hanging around so she has to do her job! I put it on the side of the tank as the stand is wood.

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons

5 gallon leopard gecko terrarium

My son has a 5 gallon leopard gecko aquarium so we have the smallest sticky heater. We are very new to reptiles so I have nothing to compare this heater to. Regardless, I am very happy with my purchase. I have a digital thermometer with a sensor that hangs about 1 inch off the bottom of the terrarium and we currently use paper towels as a base. The temperature varies between 72-77°. It may not be a good area but our baby leopard gecko is very happy.

Pros
  • Free for educational use
Cons
  • Some bugs

A genius and a seran.

This item comes with a cosmetic warning label which I didn't mind. However, some genius wrapped the self-adhesive heat mat in seran wrap so when trying to take it off the remaining adhesive that was torn off drips (about 60% gone which is not a cosmetic issue when I bought it expected it was adhesive Has). . Remember that it is very difficult to remove and should not be used unless there is a risk of fire. I specifically bought this with glue because I need it on the side of the tank, not the…

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Minor repairability

Only reaches 74.2 degrees

Terrible product. After careful assembly and reading the instructions, the heating pad only reaches a temperature of 74.2 degrees (2 degrees above room temperature) after a few days of waiting. That's a far cry from my desired 86 degrees required for my pet. I even bought a thermostat hoping that somehow my problem would be solved, but the sensor I put directly on the glass where the gasket was stuck confirmed my suspicion that the product was defective. I now have a useless heating pad on my…

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Negative experience

Worth a try but definitely not a keeper

This kid is trying really hard but I'm not overly impressed. Although he tried it in multiple places, side, back and bottom, it never generated the heat advertised. It also kept falling off the pane of my aquarium. I ended up having to buy heat bulbs to supplement its heat, and. I gave it up altogether when I got a big tank. I gave 2 stars because the customer service was excellent when my first unit arrived with a defect. It also got 2 stars because I think it works better in a smaller tank…

Pros
  • This is great
Cons
  • Obsolete model

My expectations were not met.

Terrarium for the first time. I have a hot climate orchid and was hoping to plant it in my terrarium using an 11 gallon cylinder. Of course it's the wrong size so I bought the right size and it didn't get any better. I expected the products to raise the temperature in the terrarium to 85-90 degrees Fahrenheit. However, after 6 hours they only increase the temperature in the terrarium by 2-7 degrees above room temperature, so in a room with a 75 degree terrarium I'm available, maybe only 80…

Pros
  • Brings joy
Cons
  • Damages

The adhesion sucks and if you use it properly it falls off

I've bought four of these now. I started with the larger size because I have a 30 gallon terrarium. They all fall off over time and I don't let the temp go above 86 (the minimum my snake needs in the 80's to be honest and that's the only way to get it). .) This is because I use them for their intended purpose. You should glue this to the bottom of the jar to create a hot skin for your reptile. I just do it with white space underneath, i.e. it hangs. there is no drawstring, everything is held…

Pros
  • Durable finish
Cons
  • Interval
