Did measure the floor of your tank?
The one here:
http://www.amazon.com/Repti-Therm-Under ... supplies_2
size is: Dimension: 8" x 12" (20x30cm) Wattage: 16
and this one:
http://www.amazon.com/Zoo-Med-Medium-Re ... 716&sr=1-7
is: 15.5 x 8.5 x inches
Difference appears to be 3 inches in length.

Re: New purple pincher tank
Well i got my 20gal tank setted up about a month ago (still need pic) then right away pack rat went down for a molt and came back up a couple of days ago (he takes about 1 month to molt). Now that he came up from molt, i can add a second level and more stuff to play on. Also waiting for some new shells i orderd because right now the crabs are in the largest ones i got. I have noteced the crabs seem to like to eat the sand!?? ( here is the link to the sand viewtopic.php?f=93&t=4452 ) And for some reason they all sit up on the net all day, They stil come down to eat, drink, etc but most of the time there on the net. Not sure if its something to do with humidaty/temp because my gages both broke a few days ago. So now i am waiting on digital gages because those needle type ones keep breaking. But besides that they are very active and love there new deep pools
