[QUOTE="Huntzman90, post: 161419, member: 29032"] Ive heard this one too. I would think this would be a safe alternative as it gives of very little heat. [USER=29767]@Zannee2000[/USER] I should mention my cabinet is open at the back so there is always a little air being circulated through to the enclosures and preventing the area from over heating. Also the heat pad i use is the smallest pad on the market that i am aware of and is only turned on for those cold nights. Again i am not necessarily recommending this way of heating a cabinet I am just saying it has worked for me. I still think a space heater (outside of your cabinet) would work fine. And to talk to your parents about either letting you have a space heater or having a tarantula in the first place is probably the way to go. I am glad you came here for advice and recommendations on what to do rather than adding a heating source that may injure your T. Keep us posted and good luck :) [/QUOTE]
