My favorite heat pad

These are the best of the heat pads. It sticks well, is totally flat and thin. And evenly distributes heat well.

works but now I can’t use it

I had mine for a little under a year and it was great but it won’t stick to my tank anymore. I tried re applying it but it falls off in an hour.

WILL NOT COME OFF

This heat pad works well for heating and is very flat against glass, but once it is placed, you cannot remove it whatsoever. It is very difficult and every part you get off, leave all of the adhesive on the glass. If you want it off you will need a new tank unless you are ok with a giant splotchy spot.
