    what do you have her housed in? I switched from a regular glass aquarium to a rubbermaid. It really works wonders in keeping the humidity! They even have semi clear ones, where you can still see through it!

    If I switched to rubbermaid, what kindof heat sources could I use?

    Flexwatt and a T-stat work great.

    Where would I get this Flexwatt, and would I just arrange it under the tub? As of now, all the heating experience I have consists of under tank heaters installed on glass aquariums.

    Flexwatt is just another type of under the tank heating. It's very thin, and needs to be controlled with a thermostat. If you have under the tank heaters, you can use them with the tub. Again the emphasis on the thermostat or even a dimmer to control those temps. :gj:

    I think I really just need to invest in making a rack system for most of my collection, so they can at least all have their own enclosures. Until recently I didn't realize it was such a bad idea to keep even same species of snakes together, but I don't have room for each of them to have an aquarium.

    I am using a under the tank heater from Petco. I think its a ZooMed. The Rubbermaids are soo inexpensive, you could pick one up and use your current UTH. I still perfer the look of Glass aquariums, and that was fine for me at first. But now I keep wanting to add to my collection, so r-maids are the best bet for me in the future.

    I will probably (hopefully) be switching to a rack system in the near future.
