Do you have plans for these? Did you document the building of these with pictures? I'd like to see them if that is the case since I'd like to build some.

Regards,

Terry

Not to pick but shouldnt there be dividers in the rows so the geckos dont see each other and stress??? just my observation

Actually if you look at most racks, there aren't dividers between the bins. It might be a good idea for dividers, but I dont think it's necessary.

i think the tubs are opaque enough so that they cant get a clear view of each other. All of the racks i have ever built have been like this, and so far no problems.

I just have one question about how much did it cost to build that?

Snakebyt Mar 28, 2004 03:22 AM

the wood was about $60, then 18 tubs at $3 somthing, and then heat tape for $2.25 a foot, after it was all said and done, less than $200
