    Made a new rack
    hey everyone,

    As the title says I made a new rack but got a question about the tubs.

    I used cd's as spacers between tub and shelflike you see a lot in those DIY rack movies on youtube,

    I am wondering now, do I need to make ventilation holes in the tubs or is the space of 1 CD all around the top of the tub enough for ventilation?

    thats depended on your environment you put the rack in, in my house I do not need to add anything. if your tubs stay wet all the time, add some ventilation.

    OWAL is right on but if you're noticing condensation inside the tubs then start with a few holes, if that doesn't clear it up then add more till things improve. I live where it's humid most of the year and my racks have closed sides so I usually need lots of holes in mine, especially the 41q tubs.

    Just watched a video on SnakeBytestv called Killer Ball Pythons and Brian is in Minnesota at Marc Bailey's place and his tubs had holes in them here is the link. Really cool video!! Hope it works if not just look up killer ball pythons on snakebytesTv
