Ok seriously I'm switching to tubs, help me out on my list. ?'s also.

[CoolioTiffany]

Ok so I'm so tired of tanks and heat lamps, they are just making everything worse for my BPs since it's just so dry here. So, I need help on my shopping list.

Ok here's the list, not really sure how much everything will cost, but oh well:

1- 10-20g UTH ($21 each)
2- 2 dimmers ($21 each)
3- 2 AccuRite ($15? each)
4- Soldering Iron (er...$$?)
5- tell me anything else I may need.

Here are the questions I have:

1- What size tub would I need for a BP who is around 1.5 feet long?
2- What size tub would I need for a BP who is about 3 feet long?
3- Can I just peel off the 10-20g UTH off of my 20g tank or would I need to do something to peel it off?
4- If the UTH can't stick back onto a tub, what could I use to make it stick again?
5- With a dimmer, could the UTH not melt the tub?
6- What are the best places to buy the tubs and AccuRites?
7- Could I use anything else besides a soldering iron to put holes in the tubs?
8- How much would everything pretty much cost me just so I know how much money I should be making to acquire this stuff ($93 estimated for the stuff besides soldering iron, but how much would the iron cost)?

If you could please add anything to my list that would be appreciated, as well as answer those questions I have.

I already have 2 hides for both of the BPs including a water dish and some plants. If I already have a digital thermometer, what should I get for the hygrometer? I am not sticking back to those pointless analog ones.

Well you shouldn't need a hygrometer if you are getting an acu rite, since thoses measure 2 temp and 1 humidity.

I'm not pro on tubs so wait for someone else to respond; I'm also waiting since I'm thinking switching to tubs will be a good idea too.

Ya it's just so dry here that tubs will help me out so much.

I can't say much for the tubs Either. A soldering iron, hot glue gun, either of these would be between $5 and $9 at a hardware or craft store.

I have a hot glue gun, but how would that put holes in the tub?

Well I'm at my dad's and I don't have it downloaded on his computer since it makes his computer really slow, but tomorrow I will be at my mom's house when I get home after school (have it downloaded on her computer).

hot glue guns get pretty hot too. I've heard it done before, i think even on these forums. Maybe he used and I'm thinking of the one my mother has. Its got a big metal tip that would melt plastic for sure.

Oh I know it could melt plastic.. I burned myself for not paying attention to where I had it. It was a pretty painful burn lol. I'll try to hot glue gun thing, thanks for suggesting it.

Well I wanted you to get on aim cuz my internet is running slow right idk why...well both of your snakes shall do fine in a 41qt tub...also there's a thread about your UTH question in the DIY forum...also the heat from the UTH is far away from melting a tub...I use a temp controller for my tub & it does just fine no melting...tomorrow hit me up on aim to discuss the rest or if u got any other questions...thanks...
