if it is that hot it may be burning your snake. a thermostat will make it get only so hot.

Throw it out. If an under tank heater is cracking glass, it is getting WAYYYYY too hot! It may have a short in it.

Until you get a new one you can use a human heating pad if one is handy.

well A good question to ask about the UTH is, "Is there enough airspace underneith it. If not that heat is getting trapped and causeing it to crack. If that is not the case then yea trash it, It would have to either be a short or one not made for the process in which you purchased it
