Building my first rack, just need to add heat tape.

[ZacharyPoller]

What size and how long are the tapes in each rack?
IF you make them the same you can run on one stat.
If not, I would run two stats.
I would prefer to only have to replace on one rack should anything ever happen.

I'm doing 3 inch for the top and the others I am doing 6 inch

I have used the Vivarium 300X2 for awhile now and have nothing but good to say about it. I've ordered from Reptile Basics numerous times and their always good to work with.

I will check it out thanks

If you're running different size heat tape you're going to need different thermostats for both sizes. So let's say one rack has 2 rows of 3 inch and 4 rows of 6 inch for the bigger tubs you would need a herpstat 2 just for that rack.

Awesome thanks for the help

Ordered herpstat 2 and heat tape and other things to make the set up easier

Possibly add splitters in between each tub? Most snakes wont care, but others sometimes get fussy if they see one beside them

Racks made to hold 41s long ways have a bad tendency to sag in the middle. Other than that it looks great!

Ya they hold them long ways but its just a proto type for now .. Thanks tho and for the splits between tanks I'm currently making them to a perfect fit
