How do you set up your rack tubs

[David Evans Reptiles]

This is really a no brainer but I am always looking at different ways to set up my rack tubs for my leos. So I was hoping everyone that uses rack systems would post some pictures of there tub set up . I feel like I could get some new ideas by seeing what others do. I have been looking at using 15qt. tubs for my females but I just can't figure out how people are doing this with enough room for a nest box and all. I will post pictures of my set ups soon as well. Thanks

I just put another tub together today so I took a picture of it. This is a 32qt. which is a little bigger than my other tubs. I use 28qt. for the most part.

And this is a picture of my rack I hide in the closet. Works really well.

I dont actually have any pics of a tub setup on here, but I'll take some when I get some time and post them. I keep all my adults in 15 quart Rubbermaid cleverstores, which are shorter and wider than the standard 15 quart. I include a worm dish, water dish(3" disposable ones from The Bean Farm) and a calcium dish(gatoraide bottle cap) along with a laybox/humid hide(about 7in X 4in X 4in) and a smaller dry hide on the warm side(smaller plastic gladware box upside down with an entrance hole). Both hides are painted black for darkness. I dont really see any space issues, leos arent all that active to begin with. I do keep a few females in pairs in 28 quarts because they get along well, but I'd say 80% of my animals are kept singly in the 15s. I actually dont use any substrate because I find it to be easier with cleaning.

1 hide, water dish, calcium dish. I add a humid hide when i see they are going into shed. I dont use substrate. They like to stroll through the calcium and spill the water though so it will leave messes.

Also, that tub is one of the newer 15 qt rubbermaid tubs. They are extremely wide and more efficient than the old sterilite and rubbermaid tubs

here is a vid to compare sizes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xyGVEyIPid8

Here is how I set up my tubs. the first one is my adult tub. it is a 28Q tub I house one adult in it.

Here is my Baby tub. I do not have a baby in here but this is what it looked like. This tub is a 15Q tub.

hope this helps David!!!
