Use some innovation. I am using a small, plastic container with one of those coffee cup warmers from Wally-Mart. I put a glass of water on top of the warmer and cover that with foil (to keep the water from evaporating) I leave this in the corner of the tub and pack my stuff around it. I have a really cold house and this is hanging right at 86.5 degrees. I also cover the tub with a black, plastic bag.
It looks a lot like this:

Also placing the incubating container in a location where temps are optimum such as possibly on top of a water heater, fridge, TV, DVD/VCR, computer tower/monitor, etc;

what about some sort of tub with a heater inside ,like a fish tank heater or some other kind of heater,i think that might work.
Not sure what kinda heater i'd get though.

Sorry, mate. Did you even read my post? It includes a small, cheap heater. I paid less then 2 dollars for it.

Find on old beat up cooler for free. If you want really small you could use an insulated lunchbox. Place in a warm location. If too cold, put one of Del's heaters in there with water. Totally stealth in a storage area.

You can make a tit any size you want,just buy 2 smaller tubs and a smaller heater.also as its been pointed out there are alot of alternitives,but if all thats stopping you from using a tit is the size,then dont let it you can make one any size you want.
