Yep Daz, I can see the advantages, cheap, clean, easy to change and spot and nasties. Just not particularly aesthetic. |

I use orchid bark, but he keeps moving it from under his hot hide and sleeps on the plastic base of the rub. Is this ok? The probe for thermostat is on top of the plastic too, so it isn't too hot. |
