Hi,
I've been planing my new tank for a while... and propagating what I need to save some money and I've decided to go for the Dry Start Method (DSM).
My propagators are on a conservatory where the temperature can be as cold as outside, and the plants aren't developing as well as when the propagator was in a warmer area of the house (before I moved to this new place).
The temperature inside the house can go down to 10ºC in really cold nights, so I would like to use a heater for the DSM. I read about using a heat mat, but I also read a lot of stories about the bottom glass breaking when using a heating mat under the tank, so I'm kinda stuck not knowing what to do...
Any ideas?!
