    Looking for Vision rack pictures
    I'd really like to take the next step up from my homemade racks to something more space-efficient and professional. These racks, from the looks of them, look like a good middle of the road rack. Until I can afford ARS, these might be it.

    Does anyone have them? What can you say about them, good or bad? Could I get some pictures of the areas where the tubs slide in, the panel above the tub that makes the 'ceiling', and the heating system in place? I can't find detailed enough pictures on the site, and am curious as to how exactly they are set up and how they work compared to any other rack. Any gaps or spaces? How's humidity in them?

    Thanks!

    I will try to remember to take a picture of mine tonight :)

    I don't think they're bad - but I haven't used any other rack. They work fine for my needs

    LOL...For the price they're ok...I loved the first couple I had...The levels are very inconsistent on the next ones I bought though...Some are so tight the tub is hard to slide and some are so loose I had a snake escape...I doubt I buy anymore Visions...

    I do have 2 of them, the 32 quarts ones.

    While I like their looks the rest I do not like that much, I can see myself trying the hatchling rack in the future to see how it goes, however as far as other racks I found them a little too wobbly for my taste when it come to housing larger individuals.

    Ack, escapees Jon? Can't be having that. Shame, they're priced well. I'll check out the Boaphiles, thanks for the recommendation.

    many don't like there open sides and back i have thought of a fix. Home Depot sells a thin insulated melamine that I cant fashion around the rack to better insulate it and make it look more like a traditional rack

    I like them, but they are wobbly.

    When you push the tubs back in for the large racks, the whole rack wobbles..

    Temps are not an issue if your room is controlled.

    I have never had escapees with the rack if it is built correctly.

    But it can vary alot, so controlling them well is a must. Plus, I added another heat cord on each of the racks for my own sanity.
