    I use un-printed newspaper from U-Haul, its cheap at $6/100 sheets. You can get away with using half for a 41qt effectively making it 200 changes or just fold it in half and use the entire sheet.

    I wasn't aware there were tub liners. My snakes mess their tub so much I would't spend the money for anything expensive. I use paper towels. I use aspen sometimes as well. As far as water bowls, I use heavy ceramic pet bowls.

    Honestly, I would just use paper towels in the mean time. It is a simple, sanitary, and cost effective solution.

    For hides, I use the black polypropylene hide boxes from Reptile Basics. They are cheap and polypropylene is an FDA approved plastic (same material as most tubs). In a pinch, you can use a cardboard box with a hole cut in it.

    For water dishes, I use the 3 cup, semi-rectangular pyrex food storage dishes. They are relatively flat, thick, hold up really well, and are used for human food storage. I try and shy away from most "pet" water dishes as they often say "for pet use only".
