    New monster tub in my rack!

    Check out my new monster tub in my rack, it's the one right in the middle, the one big single tub takes up the whole level! It's an ARS-9006. The top levels are ARS-7030 and the bottoms are ARS-8018. My Albino Dwarf retic was in one of the bottom tubs and she outgrew it, so I upgraded to the ARS-9006, hopefully she won't outgrow that one! She weighs just over ten pounds now. She doesn't look so big in that big tub LOL.

    The heat panel is over on the left, took her a bit to find it. At first I was going to keep the hot spot clear of Reptichip, but then I decided to cover it up. I actually just had it delivered today, that type of tub is actually discontinued and it was the last one that ARS had in stock, and it was actually a scratch and dent. The tub sometimes sticks on one side just ever so slightly, can't even really tell. They gave me $100 discount. With shipping it was about $550 delivered, the shipping alone was $200. It's almost five feet wide and almost three feet deep!

    Well today I looked in the window of my new monster tub and saw that Lucy left a big ol pile of poo LOL. So when I opened up the tub I found that she had completely shed. She immediately went to the back of the tub and I was able to spot clean almost the entire tub all around her without having to move her at all! It was really neat that I didn't even have to pick her up, even better yet because today is feeding day and I don't like to handle her before she eats. I'm really loving this large tub in my rack!

    I also bought her a large heavy ceramic dog bowl for water, I totally forgot that she didn't have water in there! All my other tubs have built in water dishes.

    How about an update? How big is that snake now? Can you tell me the measurements of that tub? Interestingly, it doesn't look like ARS offers that one anymore.
