    Pic of the new rack!

    I am joining the legions of women (and men!) that've posted their racks on BP.net.. here she is! Thanks to my awesome man Mark for helping me create this awesome thing.. I painted the outer-facing parts of the melamine white to make it more aesthetically pleasing.. using paper towel substrate for now. Do comment!! It is 41-qt. sterilite tubs, and we used 3/4" melamine.
    The incubator up top has rat snake eggs in it; I had to unplug it for a millisecond while we moved everything into place. The right side is in fact white; the angle/glare made it look weird. I ran out of white paint near the bottom, lol. I am still using the Zoomed UTHs on rheostats; they have served me well thus far and are all calibrated.
    Please note... three empty slots in the bottom! hmm... still thinking what'll go in there.. the only BP of mine not in here is Luna; too small, still in her little r-maid on the side.

    Re: Pic of the new rack!

    Nice Job on the rack. One thing you may want to consider in the future though. Instead of painting the cut edges, you can get a roll of melamine tape. It's a roll of melamine coating with glue on one side, you apply it to the edges by rolling it out glue side down and heating it with an iron to melt the glue. It makes for a nice looking finish thats a bit more waterproof then just paint.

    Thanks everyone! Maybe I will look into the mel. tape.. next time I get to home depot.
    This seems so much easier than tanks already; someone makes a mess, just take the tub out and wash in the bathtub.
    I am using UTHs; one for each tub, underneath.
