"Shoebox" tubs for racks...

[StatikStepz]

Whats the best place to get tubs for a homemade hatchling rack? I'm trying to find ones that are like the Vision hatchling tubs (18 x 7-1/2 x 3-1/2) or something relatively similar to that size. I've looked on containerstore.com, and sterilite.com, and can't seem to find one with those dimensions, give or take... none of the containers i am finding are deep enough (front to back... want them to be somewhere around 18" long).

Where have you guys gotten yours?

P.s. - am also building this rack so that i can put hatchling tubs across, but later as they grow and i decide which i want as holdbacks, i can take out the hatchling smaller tubs and replace them with tubs a little larger for when they are adults and when i breed them... so instead of maybe 4 hatchling tubs across, i can switch them out to 2 larger tubs across the shelf that will fill roughly the same amount of space... if that helps...

Thanks!

I use sterilite 6 qt containers for hatchlings and 15qt containers for single adults. From what im hearing though they stopped making these containers?

here's a website with 5 different sizes of sterilite tubs. click on the item number of each size for the dimensions of them.

If you want to use the vision tubs LLL sells them separately from the racks.
