tank or bin?

[ReptarNDukeNukem]

I have a 55 gallon tank divided into 4 11.5 gallon tanks and an quarantine 20 gallon tank or as an back up.If I go bigger breeding in the next few years which I have not started breeding because I have one adult female and one juvie male.

I use half tanks half tubs. But once I start breeding all tubs.

 

[StatikStepz]

I use a tank.
I think they look nicer and you can see the gecko better.

Agreed.

Except for hatchlings! Hatchlings i keep in a rack with bins, but yes, all my breeders are in tanks.

if u are breeding then tubs in a rack system would be best for babies i personally like tanks better for the geckos i plan on keeping i have 2 10 gals a 20 gal long and im working on a 60 gal tank to keep my females in to make room for my babies this summer so yeah

the male i have is in quartean(sp?) in one of the 10 gals my juvie aptor is in the other 10 gal and in my 20 gal long i have 3 females...the 60 gal is going to rock once i get the money to buy the heating equitment for them it will hopefully be almost done round christmas so i can move my male into the 20 gal long to give him more room

I like the tanks, but they do cost $ luckly I cleaned out a fish breeder going out of buissness and got 18 tanks for $150. Now I have a rack system for tanks in my class, I do 20L on the floor and 15 ontop, then 20L on a desk top above that. I was thinking of doing a tub/rack thing for my males, and meal worms.

what great luck that was!!!

what kind of rack system do you use?

I like tank because of the display aspect but don't like the average tanks, they're always too high and not wide enough, ugh and HEAVY! In the new year I hope to move to large clear bins because these 3 tanks are my responsibility and I'm going to seriously hurt myself hauling them around and I just don't have the room in this tiny apartment and all our crap.

before being a science teacher I was a Union Carpenter /welder, I rigged up something out of a bunch of thick oak 6ftx30in desktops, its a reinforced 20in shelf about 1/2in above a 20L tank on the floor, 15 gal fit on the shelf, then the full desktops on that. I have room for 9 per level. I only have 7 of the 20L set up and a few others on the top. If I fill it I can go higher using the same setup stacked.

I use tanks mainly but have a large bin just incase. I have a 20L with a female patty, a 40 breeder with 2 females, a spare 20 high, and an incubator with 7 turtle eggs cooking. I'm looking at getting either another 40 or a 55 to put the turtles in when they hatch.

 

[OneFootedAce]

Tanks for breeders/pets, and tubs for hatchlings. So both...

I use tanks here! i think herps in general should be shown and admired! unless you a breeder and tubes really do seem like the better option.
