Nice deal. RHPs are usually placed on one side or the other as most people that use them use them use them as the sole heat source.
And heck that's even better than what I'm selling a set up for. Got a local dealing running right now for my Pro-Line 48x23x14 HDPE cage with Pro Products PH3 65 watt RHP and Herpstat 2 for $300. Add a Herpstat 1 for $50 more. Doing it locally only as I don't want to mess with shipping. And still no bites lol. I need to scrounge up the cash to pay off 2 AP T25s I have on order lol.
And as for what to get, my vote is either a boa or SD retic morph.

That's a dream enclosure for sure. Enjoy it.

Re: Deal or not?
Score! I've got a couple babies that would grow into it nicely. As noted above, putting the RHP off to one side provides for a heat gradient across the enclosure.
Once my husband gets his CDL I should start watching CL where his runs go.

Nice! If you have ready cash and a truck you can really score good deals on large used racks and enclosures because they are an expensive PITA to ship.

Re: Deal or not?
Nice. Great advice as all above stated. I have my Pro Panels centered on the Right half set at 92 and that makes my Hot Side 89-91 and Cool Side 78. I run 85 watt pro panels and have 2) 24" high AP enclosures and 1) 30" high.

Deal or not?
I appreciate all the input! I did get a chance to take a tape to it today and it is 60" x 30" x 18"! Probably better that it's not so tall. I would say it keeps the panel from having to work so hard to maintain proper temps.
I honestly don't even know where to put this thing. It's on a table on the front porch at the moment, haha. Please don't ask where I live, I'd like to keep it. I don't need it disappearing in the middle of the night!
Well, I'm a beginner but I feel like I have learned a ton already. I spend every evening here, reading. I don't skimp on equipment. I try to be sure my little ball has everything necessary to provide her all the happiness I can.
Point being, I would honestly love to go the SD Retic route. A guy I was close with a few years ago had around 8 SD Retics and 1 Retic in large AP enclosures. He also had a rattlesnake of some sort, a gaboon viper, a rhino viper, and numerous others in a rack setup. I spent a good bit of time around them and was pretty comfortable handling the adult SD retics. Granted, handling is different than caring for full time.
Is it too early to take that jump? I kind of robbed that deal I just got of the Herpstat for my little Ball but really, in theory, all I need is another Herpstat and I should be good to go, correct? Simple things such as substrate, water bowl, and whatnot?

Re: Deal or not?
Yep, get yourself another thermostat and dial your temps in and you're ready for your new sd retic haha.
