See what happens when you forget to subscribe to your own threads? All kinds of fun happens while you're gone! Just to kinda tie the whole tank vs tub thing into the original question...

Personally, I'm not a big fan of tubs or racks. I don't think they're cruel or any of that, I just don't particularly care for them. I prefer glass for aesthetic reasons, and I've put a lot of time, effort, and money into creating what I feel is a nearly perfect environment in order to have a very healthy, content, and I would say, completely stress free animal. For me, I have two goals where my housing is concerned. First, I want to provide an environment that is nearly identical to natural habitat, only better. Second, I want to display not only a beautiful animal, but an appealing artistic design to the enclosure its self. Tubs and racks just don't do that for me. Don't get me wrong, I've seen some awful setups in glass, but tubs and racks are all about utility. On the other hand, with one python occupying a 5ft long x 4ft tall section of the room, I would very quickly run out of space to live if I started developing a collection like some of you have. If I ever start collecting, you can bet I'll be using something more space efficient.

Btw, once I get the new stand put together and in place, I'm planning to post a big thread on my setup. I'm really excited to show you guys that glass doesn't HAVE to be a nightmare!
