    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

ok the aqaurium i have my sliders in use to be my water dragon tank.. it has an under tank heater on it which aint coming off.. so my ? is can u use an under tank heater to heat the water??
 
im pretty sure it would work the same after all it is under the tank and isnt in the water. ive had 3 red eared slidders in my life but have never dealt with a water dragon cage being used for sliders though but i was just thinking out loud. good luck i hope you find someone who knows more. it may work but dont just take my word
 
As long as the sliders have a heated basking area, I wouldn't worry about heating the water.

Most UTH temps are around 90' which is way too hot for those turtles anyway.
 
well i tried it and come to find out it didnt even work anymore, but the temp of the water in my new room staying right around 82-84 degrees, so i think this will be just fine
