Sounds good. just send me a PM when you are ready and we can discuss designs and such over a cup of coffee or something.
Rocky, I was like you when I first started. I couldn't see how anyone could have their snakes in bins that weren't very see through. But as the number of my pets grew and I got more serious about hobby breeding, I realized that having more than a couple of 20 to 30 gal aquariums was not feasable, no matter how large of a house you have. A rack system is just like a book shelf that you can put in a room as Furnature. It takes up little space, and allows you to keep snakes in a very easy manner. Temp for all of them is controlled by one or 2 thermostats instead of one for each tank. You don't have to have them spread through out your house in different rooms because of space, and it is actually easier to keep track of, feed, and spend time with them when all you have to do is slide the bin off the shelf instead of taking all the lighting fixtures off the top of an aquarium and then opening the lid, sifting through the substrate to find the snake, etc.
I have noticed, just like Kimbyra, that my snakes tend to not burry themselves when in a rack system where as when they were in aquariums, they were burried all the time. Mine are less flighty and have a reduced tendency to adopt a defensive pose when I go to get them out of the rack versus a glass aquarium. But, to each his own. Everyone is going to have different opinions and if you only have 2 or 3 snakes, then by all means keep them in glass if that works for you.
If you don't mind, I was curious about what brand and model number (or size, if you don't know the model #) those tubs are? Thanks!
