I love my tubs. all of my snakes are in them, they come in so many different shapes and sizes its hard to find one that won't suit your needs unless you've got an adult of the "big 9" (hate the term, but it is useful) or a larger arboreal snake. A UTH or a nice strip of flexwatt is all they need with a thermostat. You can get clear tubs too so you can see in. I love getting home at night and seeing my snakes and knowing I'm caring for them in a good setup that didn't break the bank. They keep humidity so well I actually need to make bigger holes in the tub that my dwarf burm is using right now.

Would I buy really nice vivs if I had the money? You bet! But I'm finishing up college and tubs just make the most sense.

There ARE rack set ups you can buy that will house giant snakes as well. If you watch and of Brian from BHBReptile's videos where he works with Satan, she's kept in them. But they're kind of expensive as far as I'm aware. I've never really looked.

Wow thats interesting. I shouldnt be surprised that Animal Plastics has a rack for this tub. Theyre just so cool like that.

Yeah I was gonna say sterilite or rubbermaid I can't remember which one but one of them makes Christmas tree storage tubs. I'm planning on getting a few of those soon! Thanks for posting that MARVELFREAK

the bad thing is its hard to find xmas tree tubs except during xmas You can get used tubs for the same price as tubs or even cheaper off craigslist. A lot of times for no to much more you can get a huge viv

both do, I've got 2 of the BIG sterilite tubs and 3 slightly smaller (44ish qt) rubbermaid ones. Target usually carries them year round. I found mine in October-ish IIRC.

Ok, that's awesome. I know what all of my adult semi-arboreal snakes are going in. C'mon, that's nearly a 4x2x1, about perfect for SD retics and numerous other somewhat larger snakes!

Tubs IMO are the most versatile enclosures that won't brake your wallet....

The site i posted carries them year around. With shipping mine cost me $55.00 each. On Reptile Tubs.com it would have be $110.00 each with shipping. UPS by far has the best prices.
