    I'm not sure what kind of tubs, you could easily make them yourself with shoebox tubs. Drill a whole for the knob and screw it in.

    Yeah true ha :) I just like that they are super clear and looked like a harder plastic than most tubs :P

    Ive been using tubs from freedom breeder and I LOVE them. Super thick plastic and they are super easy to clean. Most messes are just wiped up with a paper towel. Only thing that's annoying is shed seems to "static" stick to them. Overall I love the tubs. Used a drill press to put all the air holes in no cracking at all.

    Plus I dont like super clear tubs. I like tubs that are a little darker as I feel it gives snakes a little more security.

    That's a important point of view on tubs but I think I could get away with clear tubs cause my room is very dim.

    I was more talking about the snakes being next to each other. It may just be me, but ive noticed my snakes dont eat as well if they can see the snake next to them. I just prefer darker tubs. Makes the snake feel more secure. Then they eat better and grow faster. Again just my personal observation.

    I could always build dividers between the boxes so they can't peek at each other
