That rack with the tubs, heat, and shipping is around $225 brand new. Your saving over $100 and if its in good shape, that's an awesome deal.

You can probably fill the tub with small items like fake plants, 2 hides instead of 1, a slightly larger water dish than normal, ect, ect and it will be fine.

I have a late 09 pastel myself, and he isn't very big at all. I keep him in a 20 gallon long tank, which is basically too large for him, but I packed it nice with quite a lot of fake plants and fake hides, and pieces of driftwood so that he wont feel out in the open all the time.

Using something slightly too large isn't a big deal. He will grow to size before you know it anyway

In my opinion its always better to have an enclosure that is a little big too big instead of a little bit too small.

Go for it man.... its a good deal
Thanks, I'm definitely gonna get it. Any opinion on the reptitemp 500r, or other thermostats for the future?

Also, anyone have suggestions for getting rid of my 30 gallon tank? Craigslist the best option?
