I used a 40 gallon breeder tank. Put it up on cinder blocks, filled it with about 10 gallons of water, put some more cinder blocks in the tank to keep the egg containers out of the water. I used two aquarium heaters to heat the water and a powerhead to circulate the water so there wouldn't be any hot spots. I used the glass door off of a stereo stand as my lid. It is keeping my temps and humidity right where I want it. You can really do this with any water tight container, in the past I used a large fish shipping styro but they can leak. You can also use the larger sizes of Rubbermaid containers, just be sure the heaters don't touch the botoms or sides as they can melt through.
Hope that helps,
Rick S.
