View Full Version : Biggest tub?
Can someone help me find a tub that is at least 3x2x1?
I dunno if this is made but it seems there has got to be one somewhere. I want to make a rack system with tubs for my pythons but need a tub big enough.
If i cant find one then im going to buy two med sized tubs and cut the ends off of them and glue them together to form a giant rubbermaid.
This looks pretty big: http://gallery.****************/data/13473dsc00984-med.jpg

Sterilite makes a tub (I tore of the sticker, dont know the model#) that I use for feading and cleaning. I beieve it is a 90 quart tub.... Its sizes are 30" x 12" x 12", not quite as big as you ask for. They do make bigger sizes, just may have to do a bit of shopping.
Wal-Mart, Target, Home Depot and other stores carry several models of seperate brands. I would just shop around, bring a tape measure with and see what you can find. I would suggest not 'glueing' 2 together, as this is alot trickier than it sounds, and to me seems a bit awkward to do. I will say that with the many sizes and brands that you will find what you need by shoppin around.........

Yeah but that cant house a male IJ can it?
I found a rack system on kingsnake that says this:
These racks use 48qt Sterilite tubs, they each measure 34 1/2"x16"x5 1/2". The overall rack size is 36"x16 1/2"x18". These tubs are ideal for breeding adult ball pythons, or housing boas to 6'.
it can house boas to 6'??? wow. Seriously tho could i house a male IJ in one of these?

If you're getting to the point where you are splicing rubbermaids together, it's time to abandon the idea. Some snake just cannot be housed in rubbermaids. For these ones, you need to look at building an enclosure.
I agree with Invictus on this one, I would look for an alternative.

there are DEFINTELY tubs that big, think of the huge ones that are made for storing christmas decorations with the rope handles and the wheels, they're at least 3'x18"x12"
I use 36"x20"x6" rubbermaids by Gracious Living. I don't know of any clear rubbermaids that have more height than that. There are definitely larger utility tubs that are opaque. However, I'm going to have to agree with mykee and Invictus, you may looking more towards getting custom enclosures instead.

IJCP need vertical space as well so I wouldn't recommend housing them in something with that little height.
