Another great video Justin! You've given some very helpful information. I've been thinking about switching over to deli cups since I'm up to almost 50 animals, and cleaning bowls gets pretty time consuming. I'll pick up some of the deli cups and PVC couplers you've mentioned and see how they work for me. Thanks!

BG does the same thing with a lot of his snakes now. You can use a croc water bowl and put the deli in it for the larger bowls. There is a certain size croc that the deli cup fits perfectly in. The couplers and the crocs that BG uses do get dirty however if your snake decides it needs to take a #2 next to it, but this will save you time.

BG only sees one major problem with this video Justin. How can you expect anyone to take you seriously wearing that shirt?

Thanks for the comment.

I actually do have about 20 of those crocks you're talking about. They work great as a deli cup holder as well and because of their weight don't get pushed around as much as the couplers. Only downside is the upfront expense is a bit more with those.

I am glad I caught this pro-tip while my collection is still very small. Excellent segment, terrific tip Justin!

Justin great video FYI those fittings with the threads are called Female adapters or FIP. Just thought I would let you and everyone know in case they wanted to look for them

BG has "connections"(of course) and gets them for less.

Justin, Great video, thanks for taking the time to put these out there for us all to learn from. Will you be talking about plastic caging (IE Boaphile, Neodesha, Reptile Basics) on your next segment as well, or just sticking to tubs and tanks? I don't see much info on the plastic caging and am starting to think maybe they are just not worth it? Either way, definately looking forward to the next video!
