    3" should do it, but get a second opinion on it as I'm not the tub expert.
    Ok, maybe for $20k, but that $20k is just going to buy me more snakes and T8's to put them in lol

    I use 4'', but 3 is ok too.
    And going the tub route will save space as well. It's not as hulking as a tank.

    As another fellow poor college student, I can't emphasize how much I hate tanks. I had one before tubs and it was a pain. Heating it was horrible. Cleaning it was terrible. Overall, not worth it. It was bad for me and the animal, so I was happy to ditch it. Tubs are much more easy to clean too.

    Very smart choice going with the tub set up! When I started out I did the progression from tank, to PVC cage to rack system. I don't even want to know how much $$ I put into the economy learning my lessons.

    The tub will be awesome until you secure your T-8.
