Rack box dimensions?

OnceAHero Oct 04, 2003 03:17 AM

I keep being recommended that I set up a rack breeding system to breed my leopards and I've got a question regarding the average sizes (in gallons) you would recommend for hatchlings, juveniles, solitary adults, and breeding colonies? Thanks.

Racks don't really use gallon containers/aquariums, they use plastic rubbermaid tubs that are usually measured in quarts. I'll give you some of the common sizes.

Adults (colonies) : 28-30qt "Sweater Box"

Adults (single) : 12-16qt

Babies/Juvies (single) : 5.7qt

Of course there are other sized tubs, but I'd have to say those are the most commonly used.
