I really like that idea Edmond. I actually have 2 tubs like that. Do you think it would be possible to put 2 together to house a ATB ? I want to build an enclosure for mine and I'm looking for ideas. Simple ones though preferably. I thought about making and old entertainment center into one but seems really complex to me. lol I've never actually "built" anything for something ever. I've only bui;t something with clay and play-doh [ I actually made a cobra once ]

if you use 45 gal Sterilite for your atb, you really need one is big enough, I did have a smaller size for my green tree, by the time he grow adult, I will use the 45 gal as well.

Sweet, I'm not sure what size I have but they are the same but I'll look into it and if they are too small I'll just buy a bigger one or 2 because I like the way they look and they look pretty simple.

I feel like a teenager again I've been changing my mind so often. Well, let's be adults and call it 'weighing options'. ;^) I keep going back to the fact that I'd be building/buying a big display cage for a snake who rarely leaves his hides (except to go from one to the other or eat).

Now I'm considering building or buying a 2 tub wide x 3-4 tub high rack system on bottom to house the BP and any future additions with a bigger enclosure on top for my carpet. It'll be a lot more efficient that way. I'm going to hit Wal Mart this weekend and check measurements on some tubs and see what I can come up with as far as flexibility for different sized tubs for different sized snakes that will be interchangeable as they grow and need larger tubs. I've read 41 qt. tubs are big enough for female ball pythons and most adult colubrids so I'll probably start there.

Still in the early brainstorming phase so don't be surprised if I change my mind again, but this is where I'm at now.
