    Rack
    Got my RBI rack today and, WOW, I'm a rack/tub convert! I have a Helix Control System on it and my temps humidity have already perfectly stabilized. I can also see that this is going to be a breeze to clean and maintain. In addition, it looks much better than my tank that had all the heating elements and such all over it. Just a nice, clean set up.

    And the best part.... room for more BPs!! Weee!

    So what temperature is your room? I've been considering getting a rack, but my room temperatures drop quite low...

    Fairly warm. Right now its 74ish. I don't know if I'll need it but I had a lamp and stand that held a 250 watt CHE for my tank. I'm thinking of keeping it and using it to generally heat the rack area in winter to help maintain the hot/cold gradient so my Flexwatt heat tape won't have to work so hard. However, you need to get the recommendations of more experienced rack owners on whether it works well in a really cold environment.

    Ok but it will take me a few moments as I have never posted a pic. Gotta read the sticky on how to do it.

    It's real simple.

    Get a photobucket account (or a different website) and upload the pictures there. Then you copy the IMG code that comes with every picture and just post it in the thread :D

    Ha!! It did work! It's sitting on a plastic shelving unit I had in my garage. I use it to hold various BP related stuff (as you can see). Ok, so I admit I now have room for 1 more BP... but, they're stackable and I can get a couple more units when I need them (LOL).

    Welcome to the Tub Club!!!

    RBI makes outstanding racks, and I haven't had a stitch of trouble with mine. More room for BPs is always a good thing!
