    x2! Tubs are much easier to get proper humidity in and your snake will feel more secure.

    Tub all the way!!! PVC cages are also nice, but the up front cost is more.

    What kind of snake are we talking about. That will have a huge factor on what to house it in.

    I am assuming the same thing but you never know. If we are talking BP then def go with a tub or PVC. Humidity is much more controllable and if the tub is in a rack system usually the heat is much easier to control and maintain.

    As has been said, tubs or PVC cages are the way to go. tanks are a nightmare.

    Here is some good info on tubs and PVC cages:

    i personally go with tubs, but i am sure i will have a few "Displays" in the future that would need a pvc.
