I got "Clearview" tubs from target- they were like 7$ (i bought 20 so 3 would be cheap)

you could use heat tape or flexwatt. Or i think zoo med makes a heat cable.

OR- depending on how you build the rack- you could use the standard undertank heaters- don't stick them to anything though.

you could build a small rack- and put something down like a 1x2 or even those sticky button things that come with the heat pads- just to keep the tub off the heat pad- it will melt the tub.

use a drill and a paddle bit to drill a hole in the back of the rack for the cord to go through- then plug them in and slide a tub in...

i wish i was only building a 3 tub rack...
