Tubs?

I have read pros and cons about all kinds of tubs but i want to know what kind you use, what do you like what do you hate and did you or can you buy them in bulk.

The ones I have came with my rack, so I'm not sure exactly what they are, or how to go about buying in bulk. But I can tell you what I like and don't like about them.

I LOVE how easy they are to clean.
I LOVE how relatively easy it is to maintain proper heat gradients and humidity levels.
I LOVE how I can have four fabulous pets in the space that it would normally take me to house just one.

I kinda wish the whole set up was more aesthetically pleasing.
I kinda wish the animals were a little more visible to watch.

Those two "kinda wishes" are far outweighed by all the positives of using the tubs and the rack. I can still see them moving around and being snakies...just not quite as freely as if they were housed in glass tanks. The tradeoff is more than worth it, though.

what kind of rack do you have?

I have a four drawer rack that I believe is an Animal Plastics product...but I bought it used about two years ago, and really didn't ask for or pay attention to specifics because it fit my needs so perfectly without any extra details. :oops:

I personally like the tubs from Vision. They are sturdy and very easy to clean. There really isn't anything that I don't like about them.

I have home made kind and I just found 41qt tubs locally in stock.. ( walmart never had the 41 in when I look so I happen to stopped by kmart with a friend and bang there 8 of them these are rubbermaid clear ( verus the sterile one s I been getting before) but i don't care if they fit my rack . I also seen they had about 40 more on a high shelf in another section ( i guess for quick grabbing when needed) so Iwill be set

I have animal plastics brand rack...10 level with belly heat..holds single 32qt or two 15qt per level...i buy my tubs at The Container Store, fairly inexpensive..

I have used Rubbermaid 41 quarts and sterilite 12 and 28 quart tubs, but i have to say my Iris CB-70 tubs are amazing. Flat bottom so they are easy to clean and they are sturdy compared to the Rubbermaids which are a bit flexible when a snake is inside.
