DIY cage with underground hides

[imhumpty]

So I found out Petco has their $1 per gallon sale right now but the downside is the 40, 55 and 75 gallon tanks are only 50% off and no petco stores have a 75g in stock which is odd because the sale started 4/1/17. Even of Petcos forum site people are posting everywhere that no petco stores have the 75 gallon in stock and they tell them a certain store has it but they don't at all. This is kind of annoying because I'd love to pay half off for the tank and get a 4 inch circular glass drill bit and make the holes in the bottom of it for the hides.

Seems to always be that way. I don't know how you feel about used ones but I always see them on local Facebook reptile or fish groups. Maybe even craigslist.

I never seen any on Craigslist me and my girl were even thinking about checking the pet stores since we hear how they throw out really good tanks almost all of the time.

Are you in any facebook groups? I searched in my area and turned up a bunch within 20 miles. I can't imagine that wherever you are would be all that different.

Could I use a UTH on a tub? Or could I only use a heat mat or is there really a difference between them.

Both would work fine in my opinion

Is there a special type of tub id need to use?

Not really. Ideally something with a flat bottom but sterilite tubs will work.

Okay now I'm just having trouble finding a glass bit that will cut a big enough hole into the tank any ideas
