    tubs and rack

    So I have a rack that I am about mid way completing. It is based on the rack that is sticked ( http://www.ball-pythons.net/forums/s...t=61531&page=3 ). Right now the shelves are 48" by 24" and I have been using 28 quart tubs that measure 16" wide and 23" long. These should be good for an adult male and a sub adult female, but i need a couple of tubs that would be good for some adult females. Any ideas on a good tub for this purpose?

    Do you leave the lids on them or just have them opened with the upper shelf being the lid? Right now my first 3 shelves for the 28 quarts are all with the shelf being the lid and so I was thinking about putting a safety lip that stop the tub from being able to come out while it is in place/in the way. I have only found 1 thread where they talk about it, any good ideas on how to do this?

    I do not have any lid, I do not have anything to stop the tubs from being pushed out either, and so far I never had any BP pushing their tub out.
