Belly heat done right — with the thermostat already included. This Under Tank Carbon Film Heat Mat comes with an inline digital thermostat, so you're not buying a heat mat and then scrambling to find a controller separately. It's a complete, ready-to-use belly heat solution for species that thermoregulate from below.

What it is

A carbon film under-tank heating mat that adheres to the underside of a glass enclosure, paired with an inline digital thermostat for precise temperature control. Carbon film technology provides even, consistent heat distribution across the mat surface — no hot spots, no cold zones.

What it's used for

  • Providing belly heat for species that thermoregulate from below
  • Maintaining a warm side floor temperature in terrestrial enclosures
  • Supplementing ambient heating in cooler environments
  • Supporting digestion in snakes and lizards that rely on belly warmth

May be appropriate for

  • Leopard geckos and other crepuscular/nocturnal lizards that use belly heat
  • Ball pythons and other snakes kept in tub or rack systems
  • Corn snakes, king snakes, and other terrestrial colubrid species
  • Any reptile where a warm floor zone is part of the recommended care setup

Specs

  • Carbon film heating element — even heat distribution, no hot spots
  • Includes inline digital thermostat for precise temperature control
  • Adheres to the underside of glass enclosures
  • Safe, consistent warmth from below

Husbandry notes

Always use the included thermostat — never run a heat mat unregulated. Set the thermostat probe on the enclosure floor above the mat to monitor surface temperature accurately. Provide a thermal gradient so your animal can move on and off the heat as needed — the mat should cover no more than one-third to one-half of the enclosure floor. Not recommended as the sole heat source for species with high basking temperature requirements.

Under-tank heat mats work best on glass enclosures — they're less effective on plastic tubs due to insulation differences. Adjust thermostat settings accordingly if you notice inconsistent floor temps.
