    V-35s racks??

    Are any of you guys using a v-35s rack from cserpents? I was considering the 4 tub one for my 3 snakes I have currently, size is 100 grams being the smallest and 750 being the biggest. My question is the 3.5 inch tubs too short and will this be too small for the females when they get full grown?

    Both of those options will be too small for adult females - especially the short version of the V-35. You're going to want to look at the V-70 for the ladies. As for the V-35S, I've heard mixed reviews. They'll work in a pinch, but the V-35 or V-28 sizes seem more user friendly when it comes to adult males and/or grow-outs. If I were going the all Vision tub route, I'd go with V-18 (hatchling), V-28 (male/grow-out), and V-70. I actually have the V-18 and V-70 in place now. I just have an ARS rack for my grow-outs/males.

    I just checked out the vision tubs you mentioned, they don't seem to make a rack small enough for my needed (only 3 snakes) You mentioned a v-28 for grow outs/males so I'm guessing this one below is the same size tub and comparable? Would you suggest this route?

    Yes. Either the Subadult rack by C Serpents or the Sweaterbox rack by Reptile Basics would work well for grow-outs/males.

    I have both a hatchling rack and an incubator from C Serpents and would recommend them. I've also had two of the Sweaterbox racks from Reptile Basics and would recommend them as well.

    When you say a rack not small enough, do you mean physical space in your room? Because both C Serpents and Reptile Basics make a 70 series rack that's only 3 tubs high.

    Not gonna work v35s are the same hight than v18 used for hatchlings, they are basically great for some colubrids like hognose, not for BP over 600 grams.

    V35 are ok for male BP for females you will need something bigger.

    ReptileBasics CB70 rack is excellent. I have multiple of these. They hold heat great, are sturdy, and cheap. Great business and customer care.

    Sorry wasn't clear, vision racks seemed to be larger (number of tubs) only really need 3 tubs unless I get a orange dream off ya, then I need a 4 tub lol. I'm probably leaning towards the two you just mentioned

    Keep in mind that if you need 4 tubs rack it can be done some manufacturer like Animal plastics will build the rack you need based on the size tub you want, the only draw back is the lead time.

    Yeah - I'm not a fan of their racks. Only their tubs.

    Same here I used to have their racks when I first started and they are wobbly, and I mean really wobbly.

    Their tubs are the best though.
