Corey do you use anything to fasten the racks together when stacked or are they pretty stable just stacked on their own?

Opps yup you are right! I meant to say it's the 18 tub v-35 hatchling rack. Yes they are shoebox tubs

Just the stock dowels. Just be careful when moving by yourself that you have a grip on both racks.

I agree with Corey V18 are a better investment using 6 quarts tubs with lids would get old very fast on feeding day and cleaning day.
I would probably shoot for 60 tubs right of the bat, so you can have room left for this season but can grow slightly into it too.
As far a V18 racks C-Serpents is what I would recommend if you are in a hurry and probably also since you are in Florida, give Chris a call and tell him what you need and I am sure he can build it for you.
Now if you want something like the economy line and are not in any hurry contact Animal Plastic they will build the rack you need based on the tubs you want to use, tell them you want an economy line rack using V18 tubs and tell them how many shelf you want and they will build it for you.

There is a guy selling a 60 tub v18/v35 vision rack that will hold everything and then some. I believe it is a good deal as it comes with 30 v18 tubs and 30 v35 tubs. What are your thoughts on vision racks
Re: ?? About hatchling rack
I feel like I'm rushing but we will be having eggs hatch starting in April....so I don't really have much time.

I have only seen one Vision rack in person. I did not care for the heat cable. I'd rather have heat tape. Maybe it was an older model, but I'd prefer heat tape.
I cannot find racks with enough vertical height to minimize wasted space, so I have plans drawn up for a 80 tub V18 rack that will cost me $700 with the tubs.

Because of the heat cable the heat is very uneven, and those racks are wobbly, I really do not like them.
