What is the right size and best way to set up a tub?

[seclark]

I currently have my adopted BP in a 40 gallon breeder terrarium. After reading many of the threads on this site I think I would like to move her to a tub. Let's say I am going to move nothing over from the tank. What do I need to set up a tub for an adult BP?

1 40 quart Sterilite
Heat tape
Thermostat
1 Accurite
Bedding
Large Crock Water dish
1 small kitty litter pan with entrance soldered out for a hide.

I have used a UTH but I don't know anything about heat tape where do you get it and how do you set it up?

Essentially the same thing. UTH on a thermostat will be fine!

So do I only need one hide in a tub then? Or should I have one on the hot side an one on the cool side?

That particular hide is large enough to provide a warm and cool spot inside it. In this photo, the snake was in the cool side of the hide:

Would a 10-20 gallon UTH be sufficent?

So you said a 41 Quart tub well when I went to walmart the only 41 Qt tub I found was only 6" tall would that be the right size or what dimensions am I looking for?
