Roach cabinet idea/questions

A

Second Instar
Hi everyone, I'm looking for some input on an idea I have. I have a relatively large lab cabinet with sliding glass doors on it that I got for free recently (perks of working in a lab). I was thinking of setting up the shelves with some heat tape, or heat cable connected to a thermostat. It could probably hold around 8-10 colonies in gallon jars, with the potential for more smaller colonies. I'm also thinking of setting up a lighting system in the cabinet, not for prolonged light more to just check in on em. Does anyone have experience/suggestions with a project like this? LED rope looks like it could be a good option, but it looks a little cheesy to me.

Thanks in advance!

 
If it's one of those Biolab cage thingy that you put plants and stuff into just put the roaches in there otherwise look up how to make a reptile incubator and use the same idea
