Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

yes, they are good. you really can't beat the price for what is essentially a 48"x24"x15" cage (actual size is something closer to 52x21). I still like top access for many/most of my animals. There are little "legs" that allow them to be put over heat tape, allowing for some airflow since the box doesn't sit directly on it. I have built my rack to include several of these on the bottom, then the 73 qt containers I use for my ATBs. The only downfall to my setup is that they are a little big for pulling in and out for animal care. lightweight and convenient, but big enough to be a little awkward (which is why I also have some front opening 4x2's...don't have to move them around)

unless you are planning on doing away with the "stock" top, you really can't put lights on it. flexwatt is the easiest and probably safest way to heat that type of container. If you are set on using some kind of light/heat emitter, you could make a top of wood & hardware cloth and secure it to the box. you would have to be careful of the wattage to avoid melting.
