You can view the available rack models on the Reptile Basics website.

I really want a rack system like this.
I have four CB-70's and love them. They are perfect for adult BP's.
RBI's customer service is much better. You can always reach Rich with any question at sales@reptilebasics.com

Yea, I have ordered from Rich before and he answers pretty quickly. Since you own these, would I only need one thermostat (VE-200 for example) to regulate the entire rack? In your experience, how is the ambient temps and humidity. I ask because with rising heat costs we keep our house at around 70 in the winter and I can't afford to heat the whole house to keep one room warm. So I have been using a space heater in the room but since we all work, it gets turned off during the day time. I live in SC so it doesn't get too cold too often but it can get cold.
thanks for answering my questions by the way.

Yes, you would only need one thermostat (The VE's are great) to control the entire rack since the same amount of heat tape runs through each slot.
In fact, if in the future you bought another CB-70 or two you could control the entire stack with just one thermostat as long as they all have the same size heat tape.
The CB-70 should have no problem maintaining it's temps in a 70 degree room. However just to be safe I'd recommend writing Rich and asking what the minimum room temp the CB-70's should be operated in is.
Each tub holds it's humidity well as long as you have decent sized waterbowls in them.

Thanks Adam, your awesome.
