    Good tub for young bp?
    Does anybody know a good specific tub I can order for my bp? He's about 4 months old and about 16 inches long. I do not use rack systems. Thanks.

    Anything from about 6 to 9 quarts will be fine for a baby, but you're gonna need to move up to a 15 or so soon. They seem to do better in smaller enclosures.

    Walmart has 6qt shoebox tubs and 16qts both of which are sterilite tubs. Walmart has a huge selection (my walmart does anyways) of tubs to choose from.

    Not for a baby they're not. Of course it can work, but it's not ideal for a baby. You can go just about anywhere and get tubs. If you don't have a rack to put it in, just go out and find one of the appropriate size you like and use that.

    Don't over think this :) Just go to target or walmart or anywhere that has organizing tubs. Look at the label and look for a tub that has around a 15qt capacity and is about 6" tall.

    My babies (56-116g) are all in 6 qt showboxes from walmart and I have one at just over 400g that I think is in a 15 qt and they're all doing great.
