What size tub?

kiknskreem Dec 06, 2010 08:47 AM

Hey guys, I'm looking for a good 10 level rack.

Balls will be the largest animal I a keeping in them, what minimum tub size should I get?

Thanks.

i would not go with anything smaller then a 41Qt tub. i just recently built my rack and used 8 of them for ball pythons.

I'd look at the vision versa racks (I love mine, only rack I'm now using). I have the 15qt rack, but it is the same dimensions as their 32, so I have mine set up with both 15qt and 32qt tubs.

Of course if I had large females(or more accurately when they get to that size) I will start looking at ordering one of the CB70 versa racks.

Actually already found my way to the CB70 vision rack, thinking I'm gonna go with that.

Does it hold the humidity well?

My humidity in my reptile room is really low so I mist the tubs about 4 days a week. More when they are in shed. During summer when the air wasn't as dry I didn't have to mist, the water bowls alone were enough to up humidity to where I wanted it.
