    Re: Reptile Basics Rack

    hey would all of you reccomend i get a 4 tub 32qt rack from reptilebasics.com?

    is the back heat okay? i dont want to spend the extra money for belly heat unless i really have to.

    im going to get dividers for the ones under 800 grams, and the males should be able to live in the 32s their whole life.

    If your room temps are warm enough and pretty steady then back heat works fine for those IMO. My room is always around 80F so it's pretty easy to maintain temps in my RBI's with back heat.
    The dividers are sweet, I only use one of them now but I used four of them when I got the racks.

    I'm gonna be the odd one here, you're all looking at the racks and I'm looking at the water dish. Is that deli cup holder actually black?

    It sure is! Those are my favorites.. They are the same 4" PVC couplers but they are a little more lightweight than the white ones from Home Depot. I got the black ones at Lowes.

    Thanks for the tip. Home Depot is closer than Lowes so the only time I make it out there is if Home Depot doesn't have what I'm looking for. Guess I'm gonna be skipping right past Home Depot tomorrow, I could use a few new cup holders.

    On a side note -- wow. I just realized this thread was 2 years old.

    Cool! Lowes also has the white ones. The black ones were in the next aisle over. It's been so long I can't recall what aisle it was.

    I use belly heat option for my RBI's. From what I've understood back heat is only reccomended if the ambient temp in the room is 74F or above.
