I think that you are right.

I will build a 5 slot, lidless, adult rack and use flexwatt for heating.

If you don't mind, I still have a couple questions about going from there.

1) What size tubs are good for an adult? I will provide hides for the smaller snakes.

2) How much flexwatt should go on the bottom of each tub to maintain a nice gradient?

3) I would assume that the top of the tub would have be flush with the bottom of the shelf above it. Won't this restrict all of the air flow? Should I drill holes in the tubs to allow fresh air to get in?

4) You mentioned using foil tape and insulation. In what areas should this be used, and in what quantities?

5) If you answered this already, sorry, but I should cover the sides so it gets dark in the back, right? Seems like most of the ones I have seen have the sides enclosed, but as I was looking around I came across a few that weren't.

I think that pretty well covers it. Thanks a ton for all of your help thus far.
