        If you're rocking the inset tray then odds are you don't need a pump. 
If 
you're using a pump I don't see how two heaters will end up more even. It'll 
be quicker but more even?

        For keeping my colour chemicals at temp I use a large picnic cooler. 
Inside I 
put a couple of bricks. They heat up slowly and cool down slowly. The 
chemical bottles sit on the bricks. That lets me keep more water in the 
cooler. More water means it holds a steadier temp. The pump takes water from 
the area near the sensor and dumps it at the other end of the cooler.   The 
temp is very even across the cooler. Plus once it's up to temp it holds it 
with the heater running very little.  Over kill for warming a toner tray.
