Well got the viv sealed this afternoon. Aquarium sealant used. And crikey its no wonder you have to leave it a couple of days before putting snakey in. had to come up for air a couple of times lol. It looks like its going to be another few days before Alice can move in tho as my new heatmat hasn't arrived today as I thought it would which means I couldn't get that sealed in.
Yer its strong stuff! Makes your eyes water! But needed to help it keep waterproof. Hope you get the mat soon.
Do not worry about "sealing" the heat mat in, unless you mean the mains wire through the pre-drilled holes?
I just lie a piece of vinyl on top of the mat, if the snake somehow does get underneath a sealed mat, it will be harder for him/her to find their way out. There will be people who DO seal the mat down itself, but I personally wouldn't.
EDIT: @GP. Thanks. I was writing that the same time as you I think, I just took ages longer waffling my way to an answer as usual! |
