Ok so I can't start to acquire more leos for about 4 more years, but until then I need to occupy myself by planning for the future Right now I have 1 leo in a ten gallon with an UTH and that's all I can have for now because of college coming up. I have a few basic questions about housing/rack systems, please help!
1- I know a lot of people make their own rack systems, and I have been looking around at pre-made rack systems online. They all seem expensive. So I was just wondering, I'm not too handy, but how much do you save by making your own rack system?
2- Heat Tape...... is a complete mystery to me. I know it is used a lot with rack systems and I have no idea what it even is or how it is basically set up. If someone could give me a short run-through of the basics of heat tape that would be great
3- Way way way in the future, I plan on starting my little breeding project by having 1 male and 2 females. What size rack system would be good to start with? Like how many tubs/what sizes of tubs.
Thank you so much in advance! <3
