Yep thats it i just didnt know at first if the heating pad could keep the water warm enough through the plastic so i thought about the aquarium heater.
Yea you were the one that gave me the advice to move it up about four inches above my plants at first ti burnt them to hell in back but next season i will take your advice and hopefully not throw away a $100 dollar light
