    Here is the link to a thread that I made on the basics of setting up a tub, as well as, some modifications that I made to mine. Hope it helps.

    Just to clarify - this is on the OUTSIDE of the tub, right? Just want to make sure that no one uses any type of tape INSIDE the enclosure, because it will work its way loose and it will get stuck on the snake.
