    Best place to buy supplies online?

    I'm hoping to build a snake rack soon. I just wanted to get some recommendations for an online merchant where I can buy my heat tape, and thermostat. I'll also need some other misc. Reptile supplies.

    So who has the best value and the best customer service?

    As always, thank you for your input!

    Spyder Robotics makes the Herpstat series, I got mine from them and plan on buying more from their lines in the future. Great quality thermostats, and they have a variety of models to choose from depending on what you need. If I remember properly, mine was actually shipped within a couple hours of placing my order. A+ from me.

    reptilebasics.com has everything that you would need. there's other brands/dealers on t stats but the ve ones are good. if you are building your own rack i'd highly recommend looking at pvc and not wood. i've been down that path and pvc is the way to go for sure. check you local homedepot not all of them carry the 4x8 sheets but its worth the time finding the ones that do. IMO the econo line racks from animal plastics are a deal for the price. just have to compare the value of your time and materials vs the price difference for store bought racks. good luck

    I've always used Pangea. They're more oriented toward geckos, but I just put in an order for snake things (and gecko food).

    Defiantly reptile basics. Thermostats, thg heat tape, cleaners, the best hides in the world, almost everything lol. If you buy a thermostat from them make sure you get at least the VE-200 since its proportional, I would get the ve-300 if you can. I would recommend spyder robotics also for a thermostat bc I love mine but I also love my ve thermostats. Depending how much heat tape your running the VE thermostats have a higher Watt rating then Herpstat.
