I'm getting to the point where I have to buy racks for my snakes. They're all in tanks at the moment, and I'm pretty much out of room. I have my Leopard Geckos in RBI racks and am incredibly happy with them, so I'm looking at getting RBI racks for the snakes as well. I know that racks would free up a bunch of space.

The RBI Iris CB 70 says it's made for larger snakes... but the tubs just seem so small to me. I felt the same way about my gecko's tubs too though... Right now the only adult snakes that I'd have going in these racks are one adult ball python and one adult corn snake. When I got the ball python, he was in a 20 gallon long and that just seemed so small for him, but I've read here that people think a 20 gallon long is ok for an adult BP. I upgraded him to a 50 gallon, and he seems to really like it - he's more active and there's more room to have the appropriate number of hides and a large water dish. I couldn't fit two hides and a water dish in the 20 L. Same thing with the corn snake - he was in a 10 gallon and just looked so cramped. Even my little Desert Horned Lizard is in a 40 gallon breeder tank because I've read they appreciate the extra space...

I've thought about getting the 2 x 4 cages instead, but that would just be so expensive. Right now I have four ball pythons, two corn snakes, and two Nicaraguan Boas (they stay about the same size as BPs), so I wanted to get a rack(s) that will hold all of them for life. Of course I also have to be prepared for new additions.

Speaking of which, what size caging would be recommended for Colombian Red Tails? I've read that 6 foot cages like Boaphile Plastics make are good, but again... just seems so small for a 8-10 foot snake...

Thoughts?
