Hi, can anyone tell me if I could use this stat for upto three stacking tanks all with the same type of bulb?

That model is only designed to handle one heat source. For monitoring multiple vivs with one thermostat, the HerpStat line is very popular. For 3 vivs you'd want the HerpStat 4, which can monitor up to 4 heat sources. You can look at other brands too, though; just make sure it has at least 3 separate heat probes and 3 separate power controls.

Thanx, ill keep researching, Ive got a while before the move yet so I'll look for a herpstat 4, any idea where I might buy one?

I think most people get them online. They're available on Amazon, but a lot of reptile breeders sell them as well so it would be worthwhile to look around for the best price.
