I was thinking a sterlite 1960 or bigger....

The Sterilite 1960 is fine for adult bps.

i use the 41 qt sterilite tubs, they are big enough. but i second adam on the iris cb-70 tubs. the iris tubs are completely smooth on the inside and this helps alot in cleaning and staying cleaner. the rubbermaid and sterilite tubs have ridges and grooves that can be a pain to get 100% clean. my next tubs will be iris.

I use Sterilite 1995's for my bp's. :) Haven't found any Iris tubs... :(
I am thinking about the cb 110 size tub i mean i know they dont need that much room but im only making a 5 hole rack so its fine for me.

Re: Best Tub?
really? a full grown ball can live in a CB70 - Dimensions: 17 3/4"W x 33 1/2"L x 6"H
only 6" high? considering how thick they get, they couldn't even coil in that size viv could they???
confused again,

Re: Best Tub?
6" is plenty deep. They don't get THAT fat. ;)
I love iris tubs. The company doesn't change the tub sizes every time you turn around, and there aren't all these unnecessary grooves for snakie poo to get stuck in.

Re: Best Tub?
well i'm just thinking... there needs to be space for the hide, and then the snake...
i guess you don't have driftwood or something in there for them to climb on a little? so far my new little boy loves to climb all over his driftwood.
i was just thinking, a full grown would want maybe 12"?
edited to add: nice gallery on deviant!!! ;) i go there a lot for covers for my magazine :P and my hubby and my tattoos are there under "aleesha"
