    ARS tub divides

    I keep hearing people raving about those ARS 50 series grey tubs with the divide that acts ad a hide, and how they give their snakes huge feeding responses. The reason given is that the snakes feel secure both because of opaque tubs and the divide acting as a hide.

    Now, I don't understand why it has to be a divide in the tub, how is it different to the snake compared to putting in any hide in there?

    I am tempted to try them but I live very far overseas and need a real reason before paying the shipping costs.

    I have two transparent tub racks and two opaque tub racks (not ARS) but have not noticed much difference in feeding response, although switching from one to another often gets yhem eating again.

    I have an ARS rack and the snakes seem to enjoy the built in divider/hide, and the built in water bowl holder makes cleanup a breeze. Never any spilled water.
    I suppose it is no different then using hides in your tubs. They make a great product though, and I feel I have easily gotten my money's worth.

    Yes, but from listening to people, it DOES seem to be much better than just a regular hide. I sm just wondering what the reason is.
