1) You shouldn't need any bigger than the 4" heat tape for tubs, so you can save yourself a little bit there.
2) What size BPs are you planning on getting? This will determine tub size/number (housing them individually), which will tell you how much heat tape to get.
3) Don't forget to think about your snakes growing - they'll progress through tub sizes relatively quickly if you get them young.
4) Where are you planning on putting the velcro tape? For what purpose?
5) If you can afford it, a Herpstat thermostat is a huge jump up in quality. Spending more on safety is always a good idea.
6) With multiple snakes, have you thought about a rack system? It's not a bad idea to future-proof - these things are addicting!
Best regards,
Eric
Edit: I forgot to mention that posts like this make me very happy. Thinking about husbandry/equipment before getting an animal is the best way to go about things.
